simply trying to understand how you determined that a given cable is neutral or not.
Evidently, you don't. You just say you like "neutral" cables.

- Where did I assert my interconnects are neutral? - Pat D 14:21:58 04/28/06 (6)
  My statement was an 'if-then' type statement. But you have given me no reason to suspect they are not audibly neutral. You apparently have no reasons for doing so.

    That's equivalent to throwing a horse blanket over your speakers.
    Barry Manilow could sound like Frank Sinatra.
    Frank Sinatra could sound like Tony Bennett.
    k. d. lang could sound like Tiny Tim.
    Sell all your audio equipment immediately and buy a Bose clock radio.

      k.d lang sounds like Tiny Tim on ANY system.
      - k. d. lang has one of the best female voices in pop music -- although may sound like "Tiny Tim on YOUR system - Richard BassNut Greene 07:50:29 05/03/06 (3)

        But really only by Annoyance Factor, not timbre or tone.
        HAF = High Annoyance Factor
        Tiny Tim - HAF
        k.d lang - HAF
        Your posts - HAF :)
        Sorry... I'd better get back to my washroom attendant duties... even numbered stalls.

        I've seen k. d. three times live.
        The Ingenue tour in the early 1990's showed me the best vocalist I've ever heard live (even compared with Ella Fitzgerald and Sarah Vaughan live, although well after their prime years). That was her peak and the slide down to mediocre songs, and too many slow ballads, has been steep since then.
        The last concert a few years ago can be described as "if one slow ballad is good, then five in a row are better". Better for falling asleep in the audience perhaps, which I almost did in spite of the fact the treble was the brightest I've ever heard at a concert (we were in the middle of the auditorium) so we had to use earplugs even though the overall SPL was unusually reasonable.
        
        You of all people should be able to answer that! - kerr 08:53:54 05/03/06 (0)

        YOU write them just so you can have the joy of refuting them. :)
        I don't like kd lang, you don't like Audioquest cables (or anything over 50 cents a foot, apparently) - there's no accounting for taste!
