I wasn't talking about you, I was talking about people who present their personal experiences as facts that should be added in support of cable sonics.

I am trying to separate the giddy, ecstatic music listener who thinks he has hit the cable jackpot from the people who have method and reason and require a whole lot of evidence before claiming anything either way.

Maybe we should clarify the yeasayer/naysayer definitions:

Yeasayer> A person who has "heard" a difference in a non-scientific listening environment with no real way of knowing if there was actually any change but claims there are positively differences because "I heard them myself".

Naysayer> A person who cannot find any reason scientifically or measurement-wise as to why a cable should sound different and thus claims cable sonics are definitely a myth.

I do not believe either of us fall into those two very extremist and narrow categories.

I am really disappointed I had to point this out to you because I thought you were heading down that path.
