Audio Cables: Scientific proof of impact on sound?

The presence or absence of audible effects of audio cables in hi-fi playback (and recording) is a long-standing debate that hasn't been settled yet. Measurements in most cases seem to deny this effect, while the ears of several audiophiles in contrast state a clear sonic difference. New scientific research presented in this video may be shedding some new light on this issue.

Presented peer-reviewed papers of Milind N. Kunchur:

Article 2: http://boson.physics.sc.edu/~kunchur/...

Contra:
Amir on AudioScienceReview apparently debunked the last paper (so I guess we are still on the search) but the topic is still controversial:    • Scientific Proof of Measurable Differ...  

UPDATE: Prof. Kunchur reached out and claimed he is writing a new article and stands for his past articles. Who is right? Here is a summary of his reply to the ASR video: http://boson.physics.sc.edu/~kunchur/...
