In Reply to: enlightened common sense posted by Commuteman on August 1, 2003 at 11:48:58:
especially about keeping one's wife happy!I believe that the original poster actually used speaker cables instead of interconnects. He didn't make it clear in his post, but I searched for Audioquest Crystals and they seem to be speaker cables. It does weaken your points slightly as it is possible (although not too likely) that there are LCR differences large enough between the two cables used to affect the tests.
Best regards,
