Thanks for the feedback IBSTORMIN, well done. Good to see people with a completely open mind towards both cheap and expensive connectors. If you do further testing perhaps have your wife reverse the cables to the other inputs (without your knowing at what point in the comparison that she does this) and see if you still can identify the Blue-Jeans as sounding both different and better (of course now the Blu-jeans will be hooked to the other inputs without you knowing it).
