Again your black and white view does you zero justice Jez - you are mostly correct but, for instance, the last new Hi-Fi purchase I made was for 2x 4m lengths of Linn k400 from a Linn dealer in Chiswick I guess late 90s to early 2000s. They were disgusted that I just bought the raw cables and connectors off them (for more, from memory, than my Nad 3130 cost me some 4 years earlier), not believing I’d be able to solder the bananas on myself. They cost more than my amp did! But guess what, they sounded vastly better than the dual 2.5mm mains cables I was using until that point between Nad 3130 and modified 737-rs… Oh, wait a minute, I mentioned bi-wiring…shit… LOL
Nope... they sounded the same and your imagination did the rest. Bi-wiring can make a slight difference but is dependent on many factors.
