I just uncovered a copy of Recording magazine from Oct 2001, and the
theme for this issue was mastering. They interviewed Doug Sax, and
when asked about what wire he used at the Mastering Lab, here's what
he said:

"We have done extensive listening to wire.


IDIOTS !


Are you saying that you DO believe in magic wire?


No, I'm suggesting that they must have been crazy to imagine that brand A copper
'sounded' any different to brand B copper or indeed any other brand of copper.


Doug Sax appears to have confirmed that ordinary wire is just fine.


Which didn't really require listening did it ? Unless you do indeed believe in
'magic' things that affect the sound that can't be measured. Aside from peoples
brains of course ! ;~)
