The Art and Science of great sound. The difference between sounds and music, notes and performance.
It has been pointed out that cables can’t improve the signal they pass and it’s true. While your equipment has an active impact on the signal, changing it in size or from one form to another, your cables should simply pass along what they’re given. Only it’s not that simple. They must avoid damaging the signal themselves, or allowing it to be damaged by external forces. They must preserve the notes but also the spaces, the pattern and the shape, the nuance, humanity and emotion in the performance.
It is the job of the cables to preserve the very thing that makes great music great in the first place and that takes more much more than just good LCR values.
