Ako naman i heard a difference talaga. Then i got back to reality and realized it was just my imagination :d
Anyway i dont wanna burst bubbles here pero some people swear on cables. Its just that i belong to the 'music lovers' camp, not audiophiles. Barton openly despises audiophile cables on one podcast years ago (im not sure where i can find it again). I dont see any reason to overthink cables . Alan shaw from harbeth also do not believe in cables. The musical fidelity guy too, and one of the guys who started mcintosh aint a believer. Too bad they cater to audiophiles hence, the need to manufacture cables :d
The only reason i bought the cs122 is it is heavily silver coated. I want the cable to be worry-free from oxidation for years plus, it looks good with the synchrony. That might be one of the buying factors youd wanna consider sir
