I don't believe cables make a difference, any input?

Humans are able to distinguish voices and even retain memory as to which voice belongs to whom, that's what happens when you evolve as a social animal.

To by memory distinguish between sonic differences of equipment - I like that claim to be shown valid.
Bragging doesn't count, evidence does.

Perhaps that's what happen when you evolve as a sonic animal. 😀

First I tried my favourite left-right test
Only changed cable in left channel
Soundstage collapsed completely
Almost as if right speaker wasnt playing
Obviously one is better than the other

That is quite an interesting test, for the soundstage to collapse completely, there must be some real differences. (Unless it was expectation bias, you must do a DBT. 😀 )

A few days ago I bought a pair of small popular speakers for my daughter measuring some 30cm tall.I asked my brain if I could expect some bass and he said yes.When I set up the system the bass was "unexpectedly"weak.But you told me to expect some bass I said.And my brain simply replied "I lied":whazzat:

That's very funny, I had an image of Homer. I do like his brain conversations. They should do a skit about Homer being sucked into the Hi End. 😀

Same here. Blame youth and computers methinks. Any effect is now just a click away and as many as you like. Same thing in video I have hundreds of transitions and clip effects when really 99% of the time you only need a cut, and a dissolve or wipe to tell a story that will make people laugh or cry. As soon as a new effect is invented it is flogged to death until people tire of it.

But I shouldn't put down the young as they do amaze me when they come up with something totally out of left field. Who would have ever thought of using a turntable as a musical instrument (as in scratching) And on top of that some bright spark thought why not replace the music record with a record that was pressed with only 'time code'. Then hook this up to a computer containing thousands of songs, and use the turntable now as a human interface to control the computer. Then you can hook up a monitor and see the analog waveform of the music before and after where the stylus is sitting in the groove. I think that is pretty cool. OT sorry.
