I assume, then, that you never clean your windows at home, either.
After all, they present a "distorted" view of what's outside, so why bother to clean them?Obviously, some recordings are made more carefully than others, in all respects. And some have the life processed out of them. But, if you're into this hobby, the goal is to get the most you can out of the recording. If you don't care about that, there's always video games.
FOTR, I have no idea if some of the frightfully expensive wire out there comes anywhere near justifying its price.
But I do know that wires carrying a/c of frequencies varying by a factor of 1,000 (which is what audio signals are) have significantly different electrical characteristics that can affect system performance in observable ways.
And I do know, when I changed from relatively high inductance/low capacitance interconnects to low inductance/higher capacitance interconnects, there was an immediate and obvious change in the sound that was produced.
