content: Next you should measure the difference in whether the cable is coiled clockwise or counterclockwise.

content: The play arrow on the video should point the other way, since power is being delivered to the unit on the left.

content: I like how they think that a recording of a recording through a computer/tv speaker will enable you to 'hear the difference'... Naw you need to be in physical meatspace to hear any real difference and didn't someone (Dave?) do a debunking video where someone used a stripped bare wire to deliver audio signal and the audiophools preferred that to super expensive monster cables?

content: A bare cable wont keep the signal warm so the resulting sound will be colder than a super exotic cable that maintains the signals temperature.Its a delicate balancing act as too much exotic insulation may heat up the signal resulting in a warm sound ,the only option if thats the case is cryogenic treatment of the cable.

content: All I hear is the volume turned up.Hear distortion at 2.36 in the video.Notice it is also moved around on the table.It gets louder and loader after every cable and yes I hear things I don't normal hear but I think it is done by adjusting the volume.So when I lowered the volume starting from a certain part of the tune on each cable play they sound exactly the same by lowering the voluming with the first cable max.In the video:Standard Power Cable1:50 Volume highBeldon 136482:30 Volume loweredleGO L705303:09 Volume loweredLava Caldera (self made)3:49 Volume loweredIt seems like they simply raised the volume for the last two.The first one sounds just the same as the last two if I increased it the same or lowered the two.

content: Quote from: Cyberdragon on July 13, 2020, 03:46:05 pmHaha, that reminds me of a story - at the army, we had a b/w tv set in our room. One day I had the glorious idea to paint the tv station logo with colored pens onto the screen. What a difference it made!When our sergeant came (to watch tv), he was astouned as we got a color tv now, only to notice a second later that all the rest was still b/w. Now that was a good laugh
