Agreed. They should run the test again

This time comparing the coat hangers to the most expensive, exotic high end cables they can lay hands on.

To highlight the "differences," they should use only the most resolving source components, amplifiers, and speakers, and play only audiophile-approved recordings.

My five bucks says most of the self-proclaimed "golden ears" on the listening panel STILL won't be able to hear a difference between the hangers and the luxury wires.

Of course, cabling is not really the optimum audio application for coat hangers. They're too stiff and unwieldy. Where they excel is as replacement car radio antennas, after the neighborhood hoodlums break yours off.
