| Re: Speaker cables that "really" make a difference?
Alright, i can see why there wouldn't be any differance betwee cables of equal length/similar gauge, etc. There really isnt much there to change, just a lot of stuff to make really neat little cutaways of.
BUT!! What is the effect of insulating devices? I would assume the more expensive cables would have better resistance to electrical noise. All of the info ive read in the articles linked above pretain to audible output and differances related to impedence. Is there nothing to be said for rejecting noise from other elecrtical devises? I have Monster Z1s on my fronts, and the differances i actually noticed related to the fact that there was less hum/buzz when the source is quiet.
It would stand to reason, though that the quality of your interconnects would be of more importance than that of your speaker cable. After all, the amplifier would be amplifying any noise your interconnects pick up, right? Im not an electrical engineer, but i can tell you with some certainty that noise isolation can have a noticeable effect on sound.
