@millercarbonI know from experience there are huge gains to be made from using higher quality caps, inductors, and resistors.- Capacitors have electromechanical effects that show up as very real and very significant electrical changes at audio fre...

turnbowm291 posts04-19-2021 12:30pmWire directionality in an alternating current (AC) application? How interesting...If wire is directional, which in the sphere of audio is, in my kindest words, questionable, then it could only be directional for ... 
What do we hear when we change the direction of a wire?
Other differences include, correctness in timbre for instruments, and the presents or a lack thereof of ringing in high frequencies.I understand the difference in cable direction is very much like the effect of sniffing glue. Or was that if you sn...
