| High current power cables Update. He found this in the 1999 electrical code. EE’s are rather useful. They like solving problems :-) You will notice the 6, 24, 42 from the chart you linked. | |
| High current power cables Also - here is a link to a table showing the current carrying capacities of solid vs. several different stranded wire options. AWG - American Wire Gauge Current Ratings (engineeringtoolbox.com) I had to consult with an EE but this took abou... | |
| High current power cables Just for your further edification - the Helix coil is attached to the neutral, so there is no impact to sonic performance. That does not make any sense. From a circuit standpoint, live/neutral, whether you place in the live or neutral makes no ... | |
| I don't want to beat a dead horse but I'm bugged. In another thread, perhaps this thread, @prof clearly differentiates between subjective preferences and subjective impressions. We are beating a dead horse, because we are ignoring the initial premise of the thread in some unusual, I would say bi... | |
| objective vs. subjective rabbit hole @mijostyn - pretty much a given that we will evolve to a human/machine hybrid. I don't see any other way for us to progress. | |
| High current power cables If you mean that helix @williewonka , you appear to have made an air core inductor. If it does not work out for audio, maybe you can use it for your car? | |
| I don't want to beat a dead horse but I'm bugged. Amazing is not the word that came to mind after reading that ... | |
| High current power cables its due to the fact that a solid 12 gauge wire has a much higher current carrying capacity than a stranded 12 gauge wire. No matter how often you repeat something wrong it does not become right. At DC the stranded wire will be within 5% of t... | |
| objective vs. subjective rabbit hole I would argue it takes only average equipment in a good room. Before I had all my new equipment in my listening room, I had our old home theatre system in there. Not a cheap system but not what many here would call audiophile. Everything worked. I... | |
| All New Furutech PROJECT V1 Power Cable The New KING Of Power Cables ?! Maybe an $8000 power cord makes it worse. | |
| High current power cables @williewonka people believe all kinds of crazy things even that the earth is flat because they trust their senses. How does that work out? Stranded wire same gauge as solid is typically within 5% of the equivalent solid gauge. The don't have the ... | |
| All New Furutech PROJECT V1 Power Cable The New KING Of Power Cables ?! It is a universal truth that any product expensive enough to justify an $8,000 power cord should be designed well enough that it does not need an $8,000 power cord. That makes an $8,000 power cord decoration. | |
| High current power cables @williewonka , that is pretty much all fake science, even this statement: structure of the wire - i.e. solid vs. stranded solid wires can handle a lot more current than stranded wires Having bought enough wire for experiments, test fixt... | |
| Which DACs are known to be sweet/rich/relaxed? I love when digital people want analog sound. I love when people don't understand digital sound is analog all that is different is the recording mechanism. | |
| objective vs. subjective rabbit hole +10 @prof and well stated. |
