Advice on this Board

[E-Stat]

If you are using a cable for audio frequencies, it performance at RF frequencies means nothing.

I acknowledge your assumption. Kinda sounds like the old canard where performance outside the audible band was assumed to be of no value. That was until, of course the role of IM distortion with difference products was quantified.

Audio engineers just laugh at the whole thing.

That would certainly explain why they continue to go back to the drawing board when they are found to be wrong. My observation is based on historical events and not (yet) applied to cables.

The performance of a sound system at a skating rink or arena is not designed for accurate music reproduction.

I'm glad we agree on that. I have seen comments elsewhere by engineers who assert that pro amps and the like are comparable to high performance musically oriented components.
