Stranded vs Solid Copper


I am making a home made outlet box with Hospital grade receptacles. I am hard wiring into the existing outlet box that was poorly installed.(to far recessed) Does it matter if I use solid or stranded wire for the extension wire/cord in terms of its effect on sound? The length is 4’ to 5’

Skin effect has zero role in signal transmission at audio frequencies. This is simply more snake oil promoted by cable manufacturers and their "believers." Cables are passive devices and as a result have a linear response. Only at very high frequencies, way beyond those of human hearing, does skin effect play a significant role.
