The Physics of Electricity


Can anyone explain clearly in either common parlance or technical terms the difference between a $1,000.00 cable and/or speaker wire versus a $20.00 (or so) one? What does wire "do" in an expensive cable/wire that an inexpensive cable/wire does not? Does it conduct more or "better" electricity?

" more or better electricity "  = NO

As one person brought up
This debate has been going on since Monster cable was introduced ,
which I started using because they DID make a difference and in those days it was an inexpensive improvement .

There has been several responses that try to explain why
but there is not 1 why or because , 
each manufacture will sound different in different systems .
If there was 1 answer then all cable makers would be doing the same thing , using the same materials  .

While I have experienced moving up thru one manufactures lineup offerings my next move UP might be making my own speaker cables
using the same maufactures bulk cable ( 9.5 awg ) using anothers 
spade connectors for less than 1/5 of the list cost of a compairable gauge preassembled cable .

I guess one can have cake and eat it to !
