Sure, more science is great, I'm all for that.
That doesn't mean that the science that we have now isn't completely capable of disproving the claim that RCA cables sound different...which it is.
We are speaking of connectors.
We are speaking of connectors.
That's even worse.
It's a complete and utter farce.
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.
I repeat again I believe in measurements. I never mentioned soundstage, prat, velvety, woody, sweet, whatever.
Te repito de nuevo que yo creo en las medidas. Yo nunca he mencionado escena, aterciopelado, cuerpo, dulce, etc.

Why would I take an ABX test? I'm not making any claims.
I have nothing to prove.

No analogy. The coherent explanation (already given) is based on elementary circuit theory, as inDaniel quinn said:Again explanation by analogy . Not one simple ,coherent explanation as to why RCA connectors cant sound different and that difference may give rise to preferences in reproduced sound .
DF96 said:Trivial potential dividers (otherwise known as connectors) are well understood.
My comment about punctuation and spelling was addressed to someone who I assume is a native English speaker. I am impressed by the quality of English here from non-native speakers, but sometimes concerned by that from natives. Sorry if I offended anybody.merlin el mago said:I don't like your comment.
Let us hope that your legal submissions are based on a knowledge of English law and language, as our technical submissions are based on a knowledge of circuit theory.Daniel quinn said:I have to say gents , if my submissions to the judges of England and Wales were of commensurate quality, I would probably be unemployed .
On what evidence do you base your belief? I assume you are well aware of what "evidence" means? You have conducted 'no-peeking' tests to confirm this? You are aware that claims of an unexpected nature conflicting with accepted knowledge require significant evidence?Because I am satisfied they do . I am not the one seeking to negate my empirical experience with theory .
I am not able to hear difference in sound between two brands of KP capacitors, metal film resistors etc. But I hear clear difference between two RCA plugs I have -Kimber ultra plate and WBT 0102 CU Nexgen .
Improvement approaches hard wired connection.
Do skeptics think that WBT design approach( low metal mass, OFC copper, direct gold plating etc) is the worst pseudo-science? I suggest them to try it with an open mind.

I don't understand the disconnect here, it's pretty straightforward.
I did not invent the idea that RCA connectors sound the same. You can not say my position is an "idea". It's not. It's readily provable fact.
If you want to claim the opposite, you're going to have to come at it with equally compelling evidence that proves it, and at the same time, proves how the existing factual data is incorrect.
Hint: You can't.

See, this is what I'm talking about. Some poor goofball is going to read this crap someday and think it's true.
If you believe this, then please post some data or test results which prove it, otherwise, these types of statements are toxic.
You are not ready to spend your money on high price connectors. If you are, and not hear any difference, i suggest you collecting the stamps or planting flowers.

That's right, get mad and attack me.
I know, evidence is hard to come by.
If your judicial system operates on the same basis to determine whether or not the defendant is guilty or not guilty, I would say your country is not one I would choose to live in.Either they are per se , or that difference is in my head . I have read absolutely nothing that would allow me to reasonably and proportionately conclude the difference is in my head .
"Your honor, I have seen nothing that would allow me to reasonably conclude that this man is innocent. Therefore, the court must convict."

If you state all RCA connectors sounds the same probe and give data and ABX test supporting your statement. I don't trust only in measurements or only in my ears.
At the same time, we shouldn't allow people to say things like "horses don't need water to survive" without pointing out that it's factually untrue, and could possibly result in the death of horses if people were to actually believe such nonsense.

There are literally thousands of ABX tests that have been conducted which prove me correct.
It's up to you, not me to come up with one that proves all the other thousands to be incorrect.

Thanks for apologizes, like Andrew said make sense from a native point of view.

You are validating only subjective data?

I would entertain any real data which caused me to change my views, just as the existing evidence gave me the view that I currently have.
So far all we have is subjective / anecdotal, which does nothing except prove how loud the masses can cry if it's suggested that their $200 RCA jack sounds no different from my $1.95 one.
