| connect 2 different wire gauge to pos and neg speaker terminal Al (almarg) and kijanki,I would trust your "expectation bias" over some others so called facts any day.Thank you both for your contributions to this audio forum. I never stop learning from what the two of you have to say. Sometimes I may not fully... | |

| connect 2 different wire gauge to pos and neg speaker terminal kijanki3,274 posts 08-24-2017 6:39pmDielectric constant of Teflon is about 2. Vacuum has dielectric constant of 1. Yes, Teflon will slow down electromagnetic wave. Insulator will... | |
| connect 2 different wire gauge to pos and neg speaker terminal almarg7,435 posts 08-24-2017 3:12pm Jim (Jea48), I’m not sure if your most recent post is suggesting that I try to explain why Geoff’s comment is incorrect, or that I refrain fro... | |
| connect 2 different wire gauge to pos and neg speaker terminal almarg7,433 posts 08-23-2017 6:08pmHi Steve,You raise good questions, which get into some complexities that are not obvious."The signal," and the energy that it conveys, is conducted through neither of the conductors. It is conducted in the form ... | |
| Directionality of wire Jea48 8-19-2017 Al,Question. Does the hot/signal conductor, of an IC, hold any more importance carrying the audio signal from the source to the load than the ground/return conductor?If yes please explain.If not please explain. almarg: 8/19/17I wou... | |
| Directionality of wire @geoffkait Excerpts from your last post. Obviously Bob thinks wire per se is very directional. He actually said extremely directional. The only question is if he’s right the way he places the directional wires in the cable - one wire in one dir... | |
| Directionality of wire almarg7,423 posts 08-18-2017 7:59pmAs for the "why" of whatever intrinsic directionality wire may possess, I note that even he says "I don’t want to speculate why wire is dir... | |
| Directionality of wire Al, (almarg) response, Yes, I see that now, Jim. He does not say, at least in that thread, that cables are directional; he is just addressing the wire itself. Yet it is also true, as we are saying, that the cable configuration he recommends would ... | |
| Directionality of wire almarg7,421 posts 08-18-2017 6:10pmQuoted from AA: If you run the signal and return wires in the same direction you will end up with hot spots in the stage, normally at or close... | |
| Directionality of wire terry9498 posts 08-18-2017 4:03pm@jea48 Solid. They came off the spool and went to the plating company. No, I did not reverse them. I did not then, nor do I now, expect th... | |
| Directionality of wire Al,Thanks for the response.Jim | |
| Directionality of wire @terry9, I ran across this thread. If you have not read it you may find it of interest.https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/diy-interconnects-review#Jadem6. | |
| Directionality of wire Al, (almarg),Thank you for responding to my earlier post directed to you.If by chance you are still following this thread I have another question for you.I ran across this thread, in the quest of finding more information on dielectrics and how the... | |
| Directionality of wire terry9497 posts08-18-2017 11:31am@jea48 Yes also to IC's.Further to the above, I forgot that about 20 years ago, when I saw IC costs going stratospheric, I decided to do an experiment.I built a cabinet for ARC SP10 pre-amp and Nakamichi CR7, wh... |
