Monster Cables- The World should know!

Curt... I don't want to ruin your evening :P. But one does not even have to go into technical details to understand the flaws in the argumentation. The fact is that even in double blind experiments (one of the most famous reported in the well known article by Ian G Masters & David L Clark : Do All Amplifiers Sound Alike in Stereo Review), "connoisseurs" who pretend that there are perceptible differences between -- for example -- reasonably "cheap" amps/cables and expensive ones can't in fact tell the difference (in a controlled environment)! The validity of the physics and electronic principles are one thing (and you have the right to believe that they're not reliable...), but these experiments involve human beings : if the so called expert that claims to be able to differentiate the great from the bad actually can't, the "theory" is... in big trouble (it's falsified on both sides : "humanly" and "technically", if I may say so). Prove me wrong, I'll be glad to learn something new.
PS : it's my french-english against dutch-english

FWIW: The Ten Biggest Lies in Audio (PDF). It's a very good read for anyone. Informative and entertaining.

One of the things i love about the people on this forum is they take the time to do some research and find useful information, and then share their results.

A great article IMO.
