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

I suspect we won't agree...

>I've always noticed a difference with speaker cables.>

So far, so good.

>These things don't have a sound...With interconnects I usually notice a difference but there have been times where I noticed no difference or the difference was so subtle I didn't bother to try to notice it...Cables don't have a sound...>

So you want to have it both ways?

If I recall, you are an EE. Is that what they taught you in school - only speaker cables have their own sound.

Of course all cables have a sound.

They are all made of different materials, in different configurations with different connectors and differing amounts measured of R, C and I. It would be amazing if they didn't sound different.

For example, compare a pair of top of the line Nordost cables with Cardas'.

While the impedence interactions of the components can effect their sound, cable sonic signatures are repeatable with different equipment.
