Over the years my relative has spent allot of money on these non balanced audio cables. Every time he 'upgrades' he says it sounds so much better. I hear no difference. Then he puts the volume up so my ears hurt and asks if i can hear it. I just smile at that point.
When I was like 4 years old, our neighbor had a fancy sound system he showed off to us. Next time he was at our house, I walked over to our TV to show him it could do the same thing, by just turning it up really loud.
I figure it's like I used to feel that my engine ran smother after getting an oil change. The brain is weird and can't be trusted.
