Are you guys saying plain stranded copper cable sounds as good as

experience
on this?

Yes, absolutely, no question. In the serious audio newsgroups, there's
even a $5,000 or so pool of money for anyone who can demonsrate an
ability to hear differences among cables. That money's been on the
table for about six years now, and no one has even *tried* to collect
it. You see lots of wild claims about 'cable sound', but no one steps
up to the plate. It's not even a bet, you just prove your point and
collect the prize!


**FIVE GRAND!!! Where can I get me some of that?

I reckon I can hear the difference between two speaker cables (of my
choosing) with the following equipment:

Cable 1: Goertz MI-1
Cable 2: Naim speaker cable

Cable length to be 20 Metres

These are the speakers I choose to use:

So that'll be 10dB down @ 15kHz on an SET amp - LOL !


**Actually, at the end of 20 Metres of Naim speaker cable, it won't matter
much what amplifier is driving them. Naim cables are hugely inductive,
whilst the Goertz is hugely NON-inductive.
