Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Stereo speaker cable makes a difference!

So, do the gorilla ports work well in optimizing the water flow?

Ah! Wonderfully funny visual imagery!

so. lets just say that speaker wires don't make a difference and the increased sonic quality i am hearing is due to the placebo affect. I still think it sounds better, makes me happier because i think it sounds better, so well either way i win for the happinness i feel i would gladly pay the 20 bucks i paid

Loose, two very valid reasons for purchasing anything are because I want it, and because I like it. No other explanations are necessary. I have several items in my setup that probably don't make much difference in what comes out of my speakers. They give me pleasure, and they give me peace of mind. Who can say that I'm wrong?

I complety agree with Ajax,I have ALOT more in cables and speaker wire than what any sane person would.I'm not to sure if it makes a sonic differance but I sure like them. They are all Axiom except one pair of Outlaw cables.

Loose - Ajax nailed it. Go with whatever makes you happy.

Ajax, I can say you're wrong, but whether or not I'm right is up for debate.

You're such a troublemaker, Peter.

Mapleshade Clearview Double Golden Helix Plus Really Weird Thin Speaker Cable - Does it make a difference? ABSOLUTELY! Is the difference for the better? ABSOLUTELY!

My friend bought a complete Paradigm reference setup (studio 100's, ADP's, center) and re-wired them all using pure silver wire. He also purchased a mammoth, pure silver subwoofer cable for his Servo 15. I can't remember what he paid for the silver wire (not to mention the small roll of silver solder he had to use), but I do recall I was floored when he told me. I do recall the subwoofer cable was around a thousand bucks.

After he finished wiring them all, he had me come over to listen to them. He continued to attest to the improvement in sound....noting the highs were much better than before. I heard no difference, but then again I didn't listen to his system every day like he did. When I told him I couldn't hear any difference, he became annoyed and kept throwing in different CD's and asking me again and again. I kept telling him there was no difference and eventually began to raz him for wasting is money. This banter went on for a while until he finally became so agitated that I told him I had just been kidding with him the whole time; and that I did notice a subtle difference. He guess he just needed some validation.
