Cable manufacturers?


How many cable companies actually manufacture their own cable? 

Perhaps Mogami, Belden, Canare and a few others. I am willing to bet most cable companies do not manufacture their own cable, but simply buy cable, throw on some techflex or other custom jacketing, and do nice terminations. 

Anyone have any any actual Information?

Zavato, you are correct, most have to buy the wire, then make the conductor with some wire geometry based on pseudo science, give the geometry some exotic name, terminate with off-the-shelf plugs, dress them up, mark them up 1000% and viola - you now have audiophile cables!
Mr. Teo, do you have a technical paper you could point me to about this whole atomic/molecular-level liquid conductor?  I mean a real peer reviewed and published scientific paper.  I have an advanced Engineering degree, I can handle it:) I always like to learn new things and I am hoping this is not like the infamous clever little clock or some brilliant pebbles that were peddled on Audiogon.
Whoa! What? Hey, Did I just detect a subtle bashing of the Clever Little Clock and Brilliant Pebbles?
Subtle bashing?  No, I was pretty direct.  Of all the snake-oil peddlers on this site, you rank #1.  Congrats!
