do speaker cables make a difference???

[Peter_Klim]

1. At last! 25 years of debate is over.
2. Who cares? Who do you think cares? Isn't it obvious?
3. Why not?
4. Who?

1 - I wish it were.
2 - People who like to debate.
3 - Because no one is going to change the other persons mind.
4- "God so loved the world
That He gave His one and only Son (Jesus),
That whosoever believes in Him
Will not perish but have everlasting life." - John 3:16

I guess then you haven't read DMK's message where his mind was changed?
And the countless private mails and ones who never post?
You just cannot claim what you are claiming.

4- "God so loved the world
That He gave His one and only Son (Jesus),
That whosoever believes in Him
Will not perish but have everlasting life." - John 3:16


OK, that is what that passage has to say. And? It must be so? Based on one book? That book prooves itself?
Or, there is external evidence? Good luck, enjoy your faith.

Mtry, in fairness, the posts by yourself and like-minded others really didn't change my mind. They did, however, give me the impetus to test cables myself. As you know, I heard no differences but I'm still not prepared to state unequivocally that the cables that come with Pioneer receivers are completely transparent. That doesn't stop me from poking a little harmless fun at cable believers, though.

As for the biblical passage, I'll always remember one thing my father said. He was a minister before he retired. He said "there are precious few atheists in a foxhole and even fewer in an intensive care ward." That proves nothing, of course but in his experience, even the disbelievers in those wards pray like crazy...just in case!

My father always said: "Never share a foxhole with a guy who is braver than you are".

Nor crazier!

On the topic of cables and, correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't you the poster who is also the guitarist who said if cables sounded different, you'd have noticed it with guitar cables? If you are (and this may sound stupid in light of the above) what's a good guitar cable that reduces hum? I just bought my son a guitar and amp at his request and we get horrible hum! Is there a cable you've used that reduces or eliminates this? Thanks.

Good thought, Peter. Hang in there. You're not alone.
