Do connections make a difference? A thought…

by john on Dec.20, 2009, under General Articles

During the festive season I was over at the house of a family friend, watching TV. Their reasonably new TV was hooked up using a standard PAL TV connection. I noticed that as you move the connection, the picture changed. When the connection was perfect the picture was great, but at times it wasn’t so good, and especially if you moved it.

This made me think: if something as small as a bump to the TV stand could cause a dramatic change in picture and sound quality, and there appears to be an effect on picture quality generally, there must be some truth to the fact that good connectors (read: good, not necessarily expensive) may have an impact on sound quality. It’s certainly true for signal integrity, as demonstrated.

I’ll do some research. More to come…
