I hadn't seen that before, but there is a lot to like.
I'd say: -
1. Few ears are great testers and cables rarely make a huge improvement - diminishing returns hit hard here.
2. Sometimes different is better, sometimes it is just different.
3. Cables may well have more unwarranted claims attached (audible or as measured) than any other bit of kit.
4. It is rarely cost=effective to pay more than a few % of the total system value for cables.
5. We don't know all that we would need to measure, analyse, model and predict the whole hearing process from CD to brain to a useful degree.
6. Despite all that, not all cables sound equally good.
7. In many systems and rooms, QED79 can be well beaten for Sound Quality to many years.
8. QED 79 is nevertheless a perfectly good cable in many situations and great VFM.
9. No other QED cable gets quite the same unalloyed support at its price level - many have strong competition.
If you don't agree at all with points 1 to 6, you should probably ignore the the opinions in 7,8 and 9.
