So sometimes different cable can equalize(pun intended? I'm not sure) differences between equipment.
Shoe, you have definitely lost your mind. Are you seriously insinuating that different pieces of equuipment compensate each other exactly? Your chances of winning power ball are much better. I know I'm essentially telling you there's no Santa Claus, but that is the case. I know you'd like to believe that there is some MAGIC in those black boxes and cables, but it just ain't so. The most sophisticated piece of equipment, electronically, in your rack is probably your satellite receiver and it's probably the least expensive. People spend exorbitant amounts of money on equipment and I suspect it's mostly for status. Audio frequency electronics is just NOT that complex. I'm sure your audiophile ego is having a problem with that.
In the engineer's context, you need the perfect
electronics, the perfect media, the perfect wire,
the perfect room and the perfect recording to
have a reproduction of the musical experience.
Not true. I am suggesting that you don't need this.
It is not possible to achieve that perfection
but, with careful matching of imperfect components,
including cable, the end result might be musically
satisfying.
This is just BS, you're grasping at straws. This is like saying "if you do 5 things wrong on a golf shot that you'll hit a hole in one."
P.S. Happy Holidays
