Technical and scientific discussion of amps, cables and other topics.

I agree with what JNeutron said, too!

"Tests of the interconnect by itself is useless. Include the system with the entire ground loop. Until this is done, the results are meaningless."

And you'll find he has commented on cable-specific related factors such as ITD. Only guys like Roger Russell with their simplistic view would disagree (unless they are trying to sell their own gear!) I have long averred that tests looking only at the LRC values of a cable in a vacuum are useless. They become part of a system adding their own characteristics along with interactions with the other components in the signal chain.

You are taking an ginormous logical leap from:

"Testing of a cable by itself is useless"

..........therefore..........

"Only poorly designed gear is affected by cables"
