In Reply to: RE: If for your "own selfish pleasure and enjoyment", why do you sell them?? posted by MMasztal on December 16, 2010 at 05:40:29
Are you not taking advantage of foolish people who think interconnects make a difference by using psychology to line your pockets with money?
I'm not using anything. I simply offer cables that to me sound good, look good, feel good, and even smell good.
I make no claims about them beyond what they are, what they're made of, and how much they cost. And since I assume that I am dealing with mature adults, I further assume that they're perfectly capable of deciding whether or not they wish to try or buy my cables.

Follow Ups:
I must say, you look pretty pathetic in these debates.
I'm not surprised that recently booted "jihad" recommends your cables left and right. The only question is - who in his right mind would buy cables, created by manufacturer who pretty much denies the notion that cables make difference.
...I don't attempt to pass off my subjective experience as anything more than that.
When he starts doing things like proffering "tests" with his girlfriend, he's stepping outside the subjective box and attempting to "prove" something more than simply saying that his system sounds different to him when the direction of the fuses are changed.

I don't deny the notion at all. I simply don't know the answer one way or the other. And to that end, I make no claims one way or the other.
Further, I don't care what the answer is. I only care about my own subjective pleasure and enjoyment. That's because like many others here, I actually am a subjectivist. And if God himself came down and said cables don't make an actual audible difference, I wouldn't do anything differently.
The problem is there aren't many subjectivists here. Instead they are what I would call pseudo-objectivists. These are the folks who aren't content actually being subjectivists. Instead, they feel the need to "prove" themselves beyond their subjective experience. And then they get their panties in a bunch when their objective claims are questioned or challenged.

REMOVE AUDIO ASYLUM FROM THE WEB: MODERATORS PUT YOUR FEET UP AND HAVE A LONG HOLIDAY.
A poster heard a difference that is being refuted (by someone who did not hear it).
The OP wrote .... "There was clearly a difference when I swapped it around and I think I preferred it ..... Upon reversing it she was much happier with the sound - it just drew her in more than before and I have to agree."
There is clarity in the statements from the OP. Steve Eddy has managed to screw and extrapolate the OP's statement into a theme of proof. One senses se is hiding something, or is a commercial con job believing that any publicity is good publicity (its mentioned he manufactures cables - naybe he's living a guilt complex: he thinks he's conning his clients because he can't prove his expensive cables sound better than el cheapos).

OP in this context means Original Poster, not Original Post.
So instead of quoting from the original post, why don't you to take a look at the post I actually replied to.

'AUCTUAL AUDIBLE DIFFERENCE' se 'ACTUAL PHYSICAL CHANGE' se
Could se cease abusing the word actual - difference and change are actual.
I've noticed in previous threads se uses actual to present himself with a glow of pseudo science fact.
I'll be lambasted by se. I await his actual rebutal, reflecting his actual view of the actual difference.
'AUCTUAL AUDIBLE DIFFERENCE' se 'ACTUAL PHYSICAL CHANGE' se
Could se cease abusing the word actual - difference and change are actual.
Not in every instance they're not.
I use "actual" to differentiate from "apparent."
ac·tu·al 2c : not false or apparent
ap·par·ent 5 : manifest to the senses or mind as real or true on the basis of evidence that may or may not be factually valid
One may subjectively perceive an apparent difference which would logically necessitate an equally apparent physical change with there neither being an actual audible difference nor an actual physical change to account for it.
Get it?
