There's absolutely no evidence, but it is a scientific fact. I wonder if anyone has ever rewired their house with gold plated OFC to try and capture those subtle nuances...

That's the sort of thing that makes me think there should be 'gullibility tests' for the public, with harsh punishments for failure

Funnily enough What Hi-fi pundits got caught out themselves on a double blind test on cd players, couldn't tell the difference between a £100 and £10k system if memory serves correct. Same goes for cables, Monster have to rig their own demos to show their 'quality' (they use a composite on one and HDMI on the other from an upscaling dvd player) That and the magazine is blatantly taking back handers with advertising and positive reviews. Same reason they have £23k speaker cables when you can get just as good from rewired cat-5 ethernet cables if you do it properly www.venhaus1.com/diycatfivecables.html

My cheap-ass Panasonic multi-changer will do me rightly - there's always the volume controls when in doubt

Funsize Milky Ways FTW! Though I think they're missing a trick by not doing the old-style ones again - I'm not sure a lot of people know they need to buy an overpriced Flyte bar to get that experience
