So you think wire conductors in cables are directional? Think again...
Alternating current alternates, it's the energy that flows in one direction. Congratulations!  You finally got it.

Those guys in the link above from the OP, when they start talking about digital signal as 0's and 1's, well they pretty lost all their credibility.  Only a layman would think digital as 0 and 1.

It's just not true...especially for AC. The AC current travels in both directions. Here's an easy explanation. Wrong.  AC current travels in one direction.  Look up Poynting vector.  We've been through this.  You're a bit late to the party.T...

If wire had directionality to audio signals somebody would already have invented a device to measure and quantify it! So where's this device? It's called a vector network analyzer.

Here is a riddle for you guys.Let's say you have a track from point A - to - B.  This track is not symmetric but have obstacles, uphill, down hill but everything is non-uniform.  May have more uphill or downhill depends on direction.Case 1: You ru...

Drive your car to work, then drive back. Your mpg is not the same both way because one way will have more uphill or downhill vs. the other way.Same for electrons. They will expend different amount of energy differently directionally because the me...

Kind of funny the RF folks now are criticizing about cable directional.  RF folks are known for their measurements so they have to live and die by it.If you insist on measurement, you got to put up or shut up.In RF, there is something called "inse... 
Kimber 4tc good enough?
The Canare may be very good, just as the Honda Civic is very good.

EH although is a bit extended on the top end, but sounds a bit flat on the midrange.  I like the Bugle Boys which have a palpable midrange, but also very balance from top to bottom. 
No Improvement With Transparent Reference RCA Interconnects For Naim NDX 2 Streamer
I'm happy with the sound of my system now. With some music, it could use more power. But I'll take the bait...would you please elaborate the facts on which you base the opinion that the 7Ts are a "bottleneck" in my system. I don't know what that...

The bottleneck in your system probably is the  Aerial Acoustics Model 7T.  
... abit confused: how does a power cord affect the presentation of sound...
Like I said before, nobody has able to devise a test to measure if a certain component is musical or analytical, or how large the soundstage or how deep ... and so on, so at the end of the day, you just have to listen.For those who demand "measure...

Noise floor is meaningless without knowing the distortion spectrum.   
Are cables really worth their high price because of their geometry?
^^^What kind of a system you have that you can't tell the difference?By the way, most speaker cables freq. response tends to taper off starting around 20KHz, not 30MHz.

If a person does not believe in cable capacitance and inductance will affect the sound, there is not much one can do to change that person mind.
