If there is so much to distinguish cables, why not select a cable and some

Well he insists on 0.1db difference from 20Hz to 20Khz at the speaker
terminals of all cables connected. Rather than just have the cables plonked
on as they otherwise would be.

My understanding of the original condition is that it translates to a
requirement that the cables themselves have a flat (enough) frequency
response.

This is a genuine question even though it may be taken otherwise: is
audible frequency response deviation from flat either an acceptable or
a desireable factor in a cable?

I have always assumed it to be a defect, leading to my belief that the
condition is very reasonable, but I suppose others may have different
views.
