So you think wire conductors in cables are directional? Think again...


Here is a very relevant discussion among physicists about the directionality...the way signal and electrons should flow... based on conductor orientation. Some esoteric, high-end manufacturers say they listen to each conductor to see which way the signal should flow for the best audio quality.

Read this discussion. Will it make you rethink what you’re being told and sold?

jasonbourne52 As Martin Luther said a half milenea ago, Reason is the enemy of faith (in cables?)

"Reason is the capacity of consciously applying logic based on new or existing information.[1][need quotation to verify] It is closely associated with such characteristically human activities as philosophy, science, language, mathematics, and art, and is normally considered to be a distinguishing ability possessed by humans.[2] Reason is sometimes referred to as rationality.[3]

Reasoning is associated with the acts of thinking and cognition, and involves using one’s intellect."


....where cognition is defined as....


"Cognition (/kɒɡˈnɪʃ(ə)n/ (listen)) refers to "the mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding through thought, experience, and the senses".[2] It encompasses many aspects of intellectual functions and processes such as: perception, attention, the formation of knowledge, memory and working memory, judgment and evaluation, reasoning and "computation", problem solving and decision making, comprehension and production of language. Cognitive processes use existing knowledge and discover new knowledge. "


One may note that nowhere in the above is reason allied with the blind faith in theory that has not incorporated within in its framework all available observations...in fact quite the opposite...one of the functions of reason is to extend comprehension thru new observations and understandings.

And btw never realized Luther was an audiophile...though did know he prized music highly so it does make sense he was....learn new stuff everyday eh....thank you....do you think he was an analog or digital guy ?...

Edit....that quote-ish thingee you used basically says that Luther, a man of faith, should be considered an enemy of reason....so that got me thinking like what exactly was your point ?.....thought originally it was along the lines of the battle btwn theory and belief beyond existing theory that has been waged in the cable world for centuries....but maybe not....colour me confused.


Cheers


Bob Smith and y’all need to go back to school. Not much point in refuting as half of ya will get it, and the other half will scream blue murder. Just say Bob Smith should stick to commenting on Dagogo. The audience there won’t know enough to make fun of him

So let me get this straight, the choice is listen to Bob, who is a really nice guy and actually knows stuff, or listen to you. Now this may come as a complete shock to you and all your legions of fans here, but I’m going with Bob, the really nice guy who actually knows stuff.

And btw, I kinda know a guy whose father may have recently got a Nobel Prize in Physics, so there is that there too ...like just covering all the bases eh.

Cheers.
Bein nice and 4 years don't get you an education. If he knows "stuff" then why does he say so much stuff that is wrong? Ya all like to post links, but ya may want to find out if those links are from people who know their "stuff", and not just saying what you want to hear. Hear .. pun intended.
