RE: Complete bunk???

First of all, I would never do such a thing except for myself. I am not a trained monkey doing tricks on display. Second of all I do a lot of listening tests, probably about 1/3 of them blind. They are definitely harder, but just because of the pressure rather than any inherent difference. I do it as a way to keep myself on my toes and make sure that I'm not drifting into la-la land. Third of all, I cannot explain the experiences of the cable manufacturers. Maybe they are deaf. Or maybe I am deaf. Maybe their system can't resolve that kind of difference. Or maybe I am deluded into thinking that mine can. Or maybe their cables have so many reflections already that you can't hear a few more. I have no idea. If I spent some time with their systems I could probably provide some more opinions.

But if you look at the entire thread, there have been several people that tried longer cables and heard significantly better sound. I would recommend that you just try it yourself. Have fun@
