RE: Objective Measurement Results for Cables

I was referring to the later unlabelled graphs and in the context of my post the point was that measured minute differences are inaudible and the text was not overly reliable.

Concerning the figures you are referring to, I cannot offer anything without knowing what was measured, how and under what conditions. Without this one cannot work what is going on in terms of basic physics and hence determine if some magical property of cables has been discovered, a measurement misinterpretation/mistake revealed or whatever.

Anyway, if the CV engineers have provided a model for the effect then the physics is presumably understood. What is it?
