Directional wires/cables
Is there any reason to support the idea that cables, interconnects or any other kind of wiring can be considered directional? It seems that the theory is that carrying current will alter the molecular structure of the wire. I can't find anything that supports this other than in the case of extreme temperature variation. Cryo seems to be a common treatment for wire nowadays. Extreme heat would do something as well, just nothing favorable. No idea if cryo treatment works but who knows. Back to the question, can using the wires in one direction or another actually affect it's performance? Thanks for any thoughts. I do abide by the arrows when I have them. I "mostly" follow directions but I have pondered over this one every time I hook up a pair.
Electrical energy movement (120V power to home, audio power to speakers, etc) is just energy transfer by electrons inside the metal wires! Really not matter with any structure of the matals in the wires! Please, do not incline to the non-scientific rationale of the BS manufacturers. If you have not studied chemistry, it is very easy for you to listen and believe the non-scientific retionales. I am a PhD of chemistry (retired). I did research to find molecular structure of organic componds using very expensive analytical instruments. It is very sad for not-science-oriented people to spend money for the expensive audio wires! I really hate the manufacturers of the BS stuff. |
More talk about "Electron move/flow" Wikipedia explains Einstein's Phoelectric Effect consisely like this: The photoelectric effect is the emission of electrons from a material caused by electromagnetic radiation such as ultraviolet light. |
