I've already revealed the mechanism for the change in sound. Must be a mental block. This is what is commonly referred to as the backfire effect. When confronted with evidence to the contrary of strongly held beliefs or opinions a person clutches those beliefs even more tightly. We even have a name for it.Yes, there's a collective out there. It's a collective of advanced audiophiles, like the 140,000 who have bought directional fuses. Get on board the directionality train, toot, toot!
I did not say being skeptical is a bad thing, please don't put words in my mouth. That's another logical fallacy strike for you. What I'm saying is being falsely skeptical is bad, pretending to be scientifically skeptical but not really willing to do the leg work. We call them pseudo skeptics.

"What does it look like when doing a google search on this subject, it would seem the only folks spending money to advertise or write about it are companies associated with hifi aftermarket."
That's so funny you should say that because this entire discussion has been about directionality of cables and wire in audio systems. The concept doesn't exist outside of HiFi. Directionality is a HiFi word. Hel-loo!
Tip: If you use the search engine for Propeller Head Plaza to search for the word "directionality" you will get a boatload of results going as far back as 2002.
