Just buy cables that are ‘fit for purpose’ everything else is snake oil.

To answer your original question: Yes, it is asking too much.Thanks for all responses, I am really grateful. It seems my ears have not been deceiving me. But,... just in case you chaps have been lying, and just want to get a good deal on my MIT reference digital interconnect,... how does a hundred and fifty quid sound?
Thanks again.
how does a hundred and fifty quid sound?
My MIT reference digital interconnect is on Ebay.To answer your original question: Yes, it is asking too much.
If your question was to validate your choices only you can say how that worked from 24 responses.
(1) Digital cables : a different animal from Analogue cables entirely with high degree of associated skepticism for 99% of them.... including me.
............. but I would rather spend the money on steak and wine!
Is there any agreement on which cables - power through to speakers - have the greatest impact on sound?
Where would the cable sceptics put their money when buying the cables for a system?
I'm sure there are people that would argue the toss but I find it amazing to think that some people believe cables can alter/change the sound when carrying a digital signal, its data, I don't see how the cable can effect the sound personally.
If the cable is faulty, connections on the interconnect or the socket end of item then yes I would imagine this will result in poor sound or intermittent problems.
I don't hear the difference between cables and that's OK, but now I feel poor as well as aurally challenged, thanks!I’m guessing the average earnings on a forum like this is at least £50ph so you could spend 4 hours blind testing a few cables or spend £200 buying a few you like the look of.
Are cable sceptics those that doubt the relevant science or those that doubt many of the claims of cable enthusiasts?
