Cables: Do They Actually Matter?

more_vert
My thoughts on this, in no particular order:
  • Headphone cables absolutely make a difference. My ZMF Atmos S cable for my HD 6XX sounds brighter and slightly clearer than the stock cable. In that vein, material seems to make the single largest difference.
  • Interconnects (either for speakers or from DAC to amp) make a difference.
  • Digital cables (HDMI, USB, coax, toslink, etc) don't make any difference.
  • And most importantly, the difference between the quality of cables is subtle at best unless you're comparing to some trash cable that picks up EMI like an antenna.
