>Who said a cable (or vibration control measure) will "sweeten" anything?<

Some of the cable marketers imply as such, and then their fans take it the rest of the way.

>"Sweetening" is as much a distortion as rolling off the highs or adding grain or smearing time. What a good device (or cable) will do is none of the above.<

Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!! Very true. What's wonderful is that good cables like that don't necessarily cost much! And good devices shouldn't need extra padding and AC filtering and coddling, if they're designed well. (Though if they're not designed well, it's mistaken to call them "good.")

>A good vibration control device won't for example add dynamics, it will prevent compression of dynamics.<

Interesting. Has that been tested?
