That is by far THE dumbest analogy spouted from you in the history of these boards.
Have any other utterly useless thoughts to display?

That's it, I'm starting a wine post on the off topic board. I don't care to read all this friggin mud slinging anymore. I get enough of that crap at work.

To all who are stating that speaker wire is speaker wire, how many of you have actually listened to various wires? There are measurable parameters such as capacitance, resistance, and inductance that do differ from cable to cable that can alter sound. Also, dielectric materials, wire purity, and many other factors could be involved. When you look at a painting you form an opinion based on how your brain interprets it. Isn't sound just as complex? Is it possible that some people interpret subtle changes in sound as appreciable differeces while others don't really notice the difference? Just relax your balloon knots and maybe you will hear with an open mind.

tig: do we really want to continue on with this?
In any normal length of speaker cable, where are you going to get the capacitance?
We are at audio frequencies, so where does the dialectric material (constant) come in?
Just believe it, good quality cable is good quality cable and let it alone!!!!!!! You are paying for the name on these $2600 cables, NOTHING ELSE!
Geeeeeeeeezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!
Did we open a can of worms on this one, or what?

rat,
If you read my post again I said these parameters can affect sound, meaning it is a possibility (open mind). Granted capacitance isn't as great of concern when talking about speaker wire as it is with interconnects. These are merely posibilities as to why cables sound different. You are right, good quality cable is good quality cable, but my point is it doesn't all sound the same. $2600 for a set of speaker cables is crazy in my opinion. You will hear what you want to. I suppose this goes both ways.
