Энтузиасты готовы выкладывать кругленькие суммы за кабели, обещающие «чистейший сигнал», «теплый звук» и «глубину сцены». При этом простые бюджетные компоненты из магазина часто вызывают у аудиофилов снисходительные улыбки. Такие споры не утихают годами, потому что затрагивают сразу и физику, и психологию восприятия.
