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

RE: See, this is where

Some of you have predictably gone into attack mode. I am not disputing differences in cables; I think it would be helpful to know how these differences were ascertained.

Were the cables the same length, were the same connectors used, were they both soldered or crimped, were L-C-R characteristics noted, were the components warmed up to the same degree, and was the listener in the exact same location each listening session. This is absolutely paramount or comparisons are useless.

If I drank a beer that was dearly beloved by the community and declared it vile, my taste in quality beer would be questioned. If I divulged that I had just brushed my teeth prior to drinking, then my observation would have some sort of context. Context is crucial.
