Interconnects, speaker wire, power cords. Ask the Cable Guys.

Impossible evaluation of all speaker cables.

"Perhaps those expensive cables sound good to you because you they are expensive."

Perhaps that's also true when evaluating expensive power amplifiers, preamplifiers, CD players, etc, or is it just cables that tend to turn audiophiles into such poor evaluators? What makes cables any more confusing to the audiophile ear than say the evaluation of a capacitor, vibration control footer, AC outlet, etc?

As you pointed out, the notion of folks being hoodwinked when it comes to cables, with A/B tests being needed for a proper evaluation is indeed off-topic, and efforts to skirt the rules are not allowed in this forum.
