    Made some before most of you even surfaced out of bed. At the moment I am evaluating a new cable someone has sent me to play with as I do wear more than one hat for a living. Later on I wil be doing the same for a pair of speakers and a CD player coming onto the market soon.

    Oooops sorry, shouldn't have said that, there is NO difference between cables is there? :)

    90 seconds looking back through the thread garners these, there are probably more:


    You have provided no substantiation for any of these claims.

    It's nothing to do with "rights". I'm merely asking you to substantiate your claims. You're backsliding and smoke-screening yet again, you are completely unable to answer a straight question.

    Look at your own posts, full at invective directed to people who are doing no more than asking you simple, direct questions, and not one of which you have answered.

    This is drivel. You invent a phenomena and then want me to find a proof it doesn't exist? You're the one making claims completely unknown to physics. You're the one on whom the burden of proof rests. When someone claims they have been abducted by aliens, I don't think it's reasonable to ask those who doubt that claim to come up with proof that UFOs don't exist.

    Now, in post 163 you said you would search for an answer to this question:

    So, please, don't let me interrupt your search for this, I'm keen to read what you come up with.

    "Oooops sorry, shouldn't have said that, there is NO difference between cables is there?"

    Harmony restored - I was beginning to wonder if cables make such a big difference why is there no market in fancy silver tracked pcb's or internal wiring of equipment ......

    What?????? I didn't invent the phenomena at all, but if there isn't a phenomena in the first place then why do you label it as placebo and expectation??? Flawed logic again :(

    Your trouble Ian is you try very hard to be clever and do the exact opposite, that's not including the false assumptions you make

    LOL. Did you read the results before you posted this? This is what the page concludes:

    Try again.

    I'm getting really weary of this petty war of attrition, getting nowhere and making no progress at all. And BEFORE some clown accuses me yet again of avoiding anything, it's a certain person that plays with semantics and loves squabbling to defend his own delicate ego that's using up my valuable time and killing all progress, not me. Think what you damn well like, I don't care

    So one example of blind testing of mains cables that showed a nil result! Anymore?

    I knew EXACTLY what it said. There you go again, making endless false assumptions !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    That's exactly my point, that you are so riddled with bias and prejudice it's impossible to have a sensible debate with you

    Wow, your comprehension really is very poor. In the absence of any substantiation, the phenomena (perceived differences between electrically identical cables) is most commonsensically presumed a placebo/expectancy effect, rather than something in need of dis-proof. Clear enough for you? In other words, give the cable sceptics (who are, after all, in the mainstream as far as scientific knowledge goes) something substantiated to disprove, rather than postulating an effect and then demanding they provide evidence to show that it's not entirely in your head. This is ABC stuff.

    Well, thanks for posting something in support of my case, but I think you might be better off posting something in support of your own.

    Quite the contrary, the answers are in there if you look. If you can't see the point then I'm not going to explain it again because I truly am wasting my time posting any further.
