Wolfgang,

I repeat, (i'm presuming i'm still allowed to chat? - either that or i'm talking shite again)

If cables A and B were scientifically 'proven' to be 'different' in both a qualitative and quantitative fashion, confirmed in blood by the worlds most trusted and honoured men in white coats, would there still be a difference if you couldn't hear one?

What is the purpose of your enquiry? If you are trying to 'prove' that there is no difference via the vehicle of scientific enquiry, do you suspect that your ears are deficient? If your ears are deficient, how can you be sure that you are hearing the science correctly. Which do you trust more, your ears, or the ears of your neighbour who you are supposedly hearing. Or do you wish to bring the gullible 'black magic' followers over from the dark side to the fountain of truth, to save them from debt and blindness through an act of benevolence.

Just pick the cable that looks nicest if they sound no different!

Although, of course, i forgot, how do you prove which is the most aesthetically pleasing cable?
