[net.audio] speaker cable musing

I wonder how much of the difference people hear when they
"upgrade" speaker cables comes from cables that weren't
tight and clean to begin with?  This thought is inspired by
a recent review of an amplifier that contained a statement
something like this:  "At first, our listening panel thought
the amplifier was muddy, with terrible imaging.  Then we
tightened all the connections and the sound improved dramatically."

Metal oxides don't make terribly good conductors.
