I don't care if this topic has showed up a million times! This is the here and now, and I am interested in learning about cables. You have 1687 posts and I have 12 counting this one. Sorry to step on your turf! I don't care if you have or anyone has been down this path before. Its a path and a message board, and people have questions or thoughts to be addressed.

Moreover, I can't see spending $10,000 on a Krell or Parasound amp and preamp, and connecting it with $15 of interconnects/speaker wire. It just doesn't make logical sence.

I don't think there is anything wrong with rehashing old questions, true a search would reveal some of the discussions, but there are many new members that share different opinions on different topics.
I would venture to guess that there aren't many topics that have not been discussed at one time or another on this board. IMHO rehashing old topics with fresh new opinions is always a good thing.

Michael:
I'm not saying that the thread should be stifled or censored. It just seems that "Ski" is annoyed that people aren't responding well enough to his questions, & I'm simply letting him know that many are not going to get into the whole thing again because they've been down that path many times already.

Ok then, connect it with a $1000.00 cable and make yourself feel better.

Bottom line, you cant tell the difference.

Ski:
Spend away. I haven't posted my thoughts on the cable issue one way or another. If you want to spend thousands on cables, feel free.

And, as I posted above, I'm not trying to censor the thread. Ask away... I and anyone else can choose to read or participate in it at will.

But... you have a tonality in your posts that make it seem like you are somewhat demanding of answers, and as I posted above, you should understand that many will decide not to rehash the discussion.

Mark,
I agree with what you are saying and I hope Ski does also, those that want to respond will in kind, I just would hate to see another flame war get started over this topic.

If that were to happen it would be because of the tone in which this guy speaks and almost demands answers. It wouldnt be because of the topic itself.

but i do agree the some older topics should be revisited after a certain period of time...technology changes everyday and there may be something new to learn....so even though this topic may have been discussed in much detail in the past...that doesn't mean it has become taboo and cannot be discussed any further....just my tiny 2cents
