Actually I was caught in a particularly "realistic" moment and was just making light of something that, when you stop and think about it, step outside of our little world here, is a little on the silly side. I enjoy good equipment and want it to sound its best, so now that I can afford it, I buy decent cables (but not exotic ones). But do I audition them? No I don't. I don't have the patience nor the time to obsess over something like cables. I buy cables only when they are on sale, because, to charge several hundred dollars for copper cables with a little silver plating on the connectors... it's a ripoff no matter how you slice it. It simply does not cost that much to manufacture cables! It's snake oil, actually. I try to do a little research before I buy in order to make an informed decision, (so as not to sabotage my expensive equipment investment with a bad choice -- I think of it more as insurance as much as anything) and then I go with it. Maybe I'm wrong, but I think there is a lot more room within my mind to produce imaginary differences about different cables than there is room within the physics of copper wire to sound differently. Again, I guess I could be wrong about that. But "physics is physics" I suppose. It's all good.
