What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire?
@mahgisterwhat have you read of Essien to this day? Which articles?I am afraid, nothing except the BITS. Still have no time to reed them thoroughly.I think that perhaps in Essien experiences with string internal variable force of tension is the be...

@dletchI just read someone claimed the location of an instrument shifted 1/3 of the soundstage due to, wait for it .... wait for it .... copper wire. We have entered the twilight zone.Such an experiment is conducted to subjectively evaluate the "l... 
What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire?
@oldhvymecJames B of Ampzilla did it 50 years ago.. He KNEW cable and wire sounded different one way than the other... Why do you think he literally WELDED the power cable in place the RIGHT DIRECTION on his then and STILL famous NO feed back amps... 
What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire?
@perkriI find the idea of listening to an entire spool of wire a very interesting idea. Always appreciated/enjoyed calculus. The whole idea of what happens when you look at something at its infinite limit. Is it zero, one or infinity.Would be very... 
What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire?
@mahgister, your messages can be broken down into quotation, such a lively language. Above all you are a man of letters, need to write books, that's your calling. I see this clearly despite my poor English. 
What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire?
@millercarbonIt seems to me it is all down to propagating a field. This hypothesis also has drawbacks. The wire is heard equally well both as an acoustic cable and as an IC, especially the difference is clearly noticeable in tube amps. A tube is c... 
What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire?
@djonesWhy is it too far fetched? You make a claim saying there is only one conclusion, I give an alternate conclusion you say is to far fetched. I fail to see how humans have bias is more far fetched than unknown signals hidden in wire unknown t... 
What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire?
@millercarbonI do not however think this means there has to be some additional unaccounted for signal there waiting to be discovered. I find it much more likely we simply have vastly underestimated the human sensory potential.I think this hypothes... 
What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire?
@mahgisterI must thank you anton_stepichev very much for Essien article...This book was the missing link for me .....Hi, Mahgister! The link to Essien was given by a person in another thread, I can't find who and where. We must both say thanks to ... 
What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire?
@millercarbonI know from experience there are huge gains to be made from using higher quality caps, inductors, and resistors.Without doubt, every detail of the audio system is involved in the formation of its individual differences. I do not menti... 
What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire?
@calvinandhobbesOne possible physical reason for directionality of cables is due to the direction in which the wire is drawn and voids and irregularities that result from the drawing process.The drawing of the wire affects its sound, I checked it ... 
What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire?
@turnbowm Wire directionality in an alternating current (AC) application? How interesting...Here it is even more interesting, if of course you are really interested in understanding. 
What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire?
@djones51 This statement is flawed there is another possible conclusion well known to science that doesn’t require additional signals contained in the electrical signal. The other option? Bias, conduct a proper ABX test and see if people really co... 
The Contour System – Directional Wiring of Audio Parts
@ausaudio The person who posted that comment on telephones was from the USA. I guess he's old enough to know what the U.S. analog phone line sounded like. You are doing nothing more than romanticizing a bygone era. There is a bit of romance,... 
The Contour System – Directional Wiring of Audio Parts
@ausaudioHate to break it to you, but phone lines have started to be digitized in the early 70s, and by 80, 40+ years ago, your phone call almost definitely passed through an ADC and DAC. Ausaudio, maybe it was in the USA, but I'm from Russia. Our...
