RE: Are shielded cables declasse?

and I thought it was just me ......


all cables destroy your music signal ...the best ones are the ones that do the least damage.

The reason why heavy shielding is often used is that mass market cables makers can buy huge drums of the stuff off the shelf..thats often been designed for other purposes imo

shielding added to one pair of identical ic's can clearly be heard to reduce dynamics and muddy up the image ...well in my system !

and to answer one of the other posts .....if you can hear an ic's difference in one position in the system ie between pre and power there seems to me absolutly no reason why it could not be heard elsewhere ..unless there a serious equipment or impedance mismatch.
