"Scientific test? No...."
Well...I don't agree, I think it was quite scientific and I'd say the odds are long that your coax cable's direction audibly affects the system performance. It sounds like you made a reasonable effort to avoid bias and had no investment in which way was best, if either.
And you know, I don't remember if I ever tried reversing mine. I've got one link in particular that I definitely want to run a test on. It just never occurred to me.
There are all sorts of reasons for testing things, what sort of cook doesn't taste the sauce? It's the unexpected correlations that spice things up. It's one thing if adding salt to the stew affects it's flavor, quite another if doing so makes the screen door quit squeaking. It usually pays to be a good observer and that includes not wontedly ignoring things that weren't expected.
