Some attribute it to skin effect,
some say its conductivity of the material (therefore the ned for 7N copper or silver),
some say it's the way the strands and the dielectric minimizes capacitance and shield RF.
I once entered into a discussion on this topic with a well-respected gentleman in the high tech field who supposedly invented the piezoelectric print head and has 90+ patents under his belt.
He started the topic yet soon afterwards he tore me an asshole and that evening went downhill real fast.
Voodoo or not, keep an open mind. Start with reasonably priced stuff and let *your* ears be the judge.
