How Electricity Actually Works

In November of last year I posted a Vertasium YT vid titled "The Big Misconception About Electricity".  Well it caused quite a stir and like an arachnid had many legs many of which attempted to draw A'gonrs into the poison fangs!

Well, here is the follow-up to that original vid which caused quite a stir in the "intellectual" community as well.

Vertasium "How Electricity Actually Works".

 

This does have implications for our audio cabling...

"All truth passes through three stages.

First, it is ridiculed.

Second, it is violently opposed.

Third, it is accepted as being self-evident."

@deludedaudiophile 

My take-away as far as audio goes is that proximity of cabling to each other matters.  This is well known and I don't think it is even arguable at this stage of the game.

@rodman99999 

Thank you for posting the links.  

I have only one theory and that is:  As a species we simply don't know a tenth of a percent about anything.

We may know what works and what doesn't but that's about where it ends.  I'm not attempting to be cute or controversial...call it a belief system if you like.

I'm happy that this posting didn't go off the rails like the last one and enjoy reading this thread.
