With regards to "digital" cables, I am at the other end of the scale. I find it absurd how anyone could assert that they cannot make any difference without first exploring the physics of transmission of electromagnetic waves through metallic conductors. Discrete "1 and 0" states is a highly simplified way of describing electron behaviour. A "non-musical" signal can still influence the musical signal that is produced. It is one big energy transduction cascade.

We do not see things as they are. We see things as we are.

I didn't say the USB cable was passing a musical signal Chris.

But maybe not for the reasons we imagine. If it's a USB cable it is not passing a musical signal. End of story. |

Pour yourself a Victory Gin.
You need Minitrue permission to categorise anything as good, plusgood or doubleplusgood. A review of Orwell's 1984 mentions "A culture of snitching is encouraged" and I've already been reprogramed by Minitrue. Funny because I took advice from their own advisor before writing what I did. Thought it best to remove all suggestions before they arranged my disappearance. We now sell one a year. Edited by Graham Slee - 20 Feb 2018 at 6:06pm |

That none should be able to buy or sell without a smartphone and the knowledge in how to use apps

I think you may need to whisper that on a couple of other well known forums
I'd never realised that cables (particularly USB) were such a controversial topic. |

I think your careful observations show that digital cables do make a difference to the music we hear.
