All gravity sounds the same to me.

 

[DrDyna]

It's a game, play along for a minute.

Do you believe that gravity is real?

Edit: I think this is a lost cause, I can't even get the subjectivists to bite on something that can't be seen.

 

[merlin el mago]

Of course, but imagine you live in the moon and don't visit other planets....

 

[DrDyna]

Of course.

So, if I told you I felt lighter today, but when I get on a scale, I'm exactly the same weight.

Would you insist that "feeling lighter" should be something we should try to measure?

Edit: Or say that my scale is flawed because it doesn't care how I feel?

 

[merlin el mago]

All people weight the same?

 

[Mark Whitney]

Why not, my wife does it all the time.

Or are you trying to say that if gravity changes, your scale will measure that change? It may not.

Nothing about physics here, poor connectors are more prone to fail in difficult situations more of a pathological behavior. A fresh solid connection via an RCA or LEMO will pass unaltered signals. Shielding and grounding is a totally different issue. The non-existent micro-diodes, etc. would manifest as electrical signal aberrations that are easily measurable.

Scott,

I don't know why you keep bringing up micro-diodes. There ain't no micro-diodes. (Although there are some very small surface mounted parts.) In measurements copper oxides in the wire show no effect.

Would you like to discuss something real such as iron wire or even copper alloyed with iron? That actually can show measurable distortion. Did you know many brass alloys contain iron to improve the wear characteristics?

Are you aware the guys who build cell telephone equipment will replace a connector if it is scratched?

A quality connector does cost more.

But back to the original question. Michael Percy Audio sells a number of RCA connectors that are of good quality and moderate cost.

No, this is about subjective vs real.

 

[merlin el mago]

Well you know all people don't weight the same thanks to a scale, so I want the scale to measure the different weights.

This isn't about multiple people, this is about one person sharing an opinion about something which goes against measurable facts.

Scott,

I don't know why you keep bringing up micro-diodes.

The OP did, and I don't understand your point OTHER people keep bringing it up and I have been saying since before the internet this inter-conductor rectification does not happen.

 

[merlin el mago]

I can't go against measurable facts, I only wish to measure facts that I guess can be measured in the future but now can't be measured.

Like a scale that will tell you if you should "feel lighter" today?

 

[Kiriakos]

Very poorly worded statement (and, hey, I´m also a native Spanish speaker, but I don´t hide behind that or use it as an excuse when somebody contradicts me) .
Truth is: "oscilloscopes do not measure subjective "parameters" (soundstage, prat, velvety, woody, sweet, whatever) , but measurable, repeatable, calibrated physical ones such as SPL, response curves, distortion, waveforms, etc.

You forgot to mention the FFT.

 

[merlin el mago]

No, a scale to told me if I real have the same weight than yesterday or I weight more or less.

You don't want to measure factual things, you're looking for a way to measure something that you feel exists, which all actual measurements fail to detect.

The funny thing is, I can trick you by using a cheap cable and talking about how wonderful it sounds, so what is there to measure?

Are we talking about a guillibilityometer?

 

[jean-paul]

I suppose a listening session at your place is a gathering of oscilloscopes with you operating them ?

 

[BigE]

No, a scale to told me if I real have the same weight than yesterday or I weight more or less.

So if you simply "feel lighter", you discard the subjective feeling?

Yes.

I wanna know why sounds better, I don't need other person to know or to convince me.

What's guillibilityometer?
