RE: Ahh... "cables as tone controls" argument.

Can you relate what experiences you've had with different combinations of equipment, & cables?
Do all speakers sound the same? Do Wilson Watt Puppies sound the same as AvanteGarde duo horns? Or, Aerial 20Ts? Which of the 3 if any, are capable of more low volume midrange detail retreival? Can they all use the same amplification to drive them? Since Speltz anti-cable is very different physically than Acoustic Zen, 1 is $100, the other is $4000, and they both have different levels of resistance, a different shielding, and 1 brand has two physically separated wires to each speaker, do they both cost the same to make? Of course, I left off terminators, whether or not there are multiple types of metal in the wire, and/or shielding. And, the purity, and/or density..... Perhaps one has 50% of the retail price going into its manufacture, perhaps 1 has 5%?

See my point?
