"droning" is a very funny word by the way so I will use it more often in the future.and your first sentence was so long I ran out of breath reading it and almost passed out
"Do you also remember that you could not tell me if one participant in your tests had so sworn off exotic cables as a result of having participated in such "impactful" tests? "RG
I couldn't tell you because I didn't ask the question.
I wouldn't ask the question because it would have been an
insulting question: Why would anyone in his right mind get rid of his expensive cables, probably taking a big $ loss if they could be sold at all, and spend more money to replace them with cheaper cables ... when doing so would have no effect on the sound quality?
