What is getting to your ear, including overtones and harmonics, can
definitely be degraded by that cable.

Perhaps I misunderstood your context ... or you misunderstood mine?


No.


Yes

I'm saying that in the audible range there's not going to be enough
degradation owing to the wire chosen for audio cable that one is going
to be able to measure it, what more hear it audibly.


I'm saying ... do a side by side comparison with fifty feet of electric
extension cord, and ten feet of a high quality audio cable, to a good
set of speakers and tell me most listeners, and particularly a trained
one, will not hear the difference.

My ears are 69 years old, but I'd lay a wager any day that I could still
accurately AB the difference, with familiar content in a familiar
environment.
