the fact that you like them may have everything to do with "Eddy effects". After all the designer himself will be the first to tell you that what you perceive may have as much to do with non-audible parameters as audible ones, for example perhaps you like them because you're the kind of guy that responds favorably to the concept of fragile silk clad conductors, or maybe there's just something about the concept of aged wire of mysterious composition that turns your clock, that sort of thing. This is not a tall tale, I can point you to threads where the concepts are articulated in some detail, and for that matter Eddy, never shy for words, would very likely be willing summarize his philosophy.Now I'm not saying, or perhaps I should say I have not definitive proof, that Eddy designed his product to appeal to those susceptible to non-audible parameters, but it is interesting that he's is on record as admitting that silk isn't technically the best dielectric, but unfortunately he didn't articulate the criteria that led to its selection. In fact he seems very reluctant anything at all about Tao ... perhaps the mystery is yet another factor that appeals to some.
However, if I were a betting man I'd say you likely aren't interested in the threads I mentioned, nor are you likely to ask Eddy for his take on all this.
Enjoy your Tao.
