Simple question, or is it...
Jim, Electric current is a flow of electric charge. Electric current produces magnetic field around the wire. Any change in amount or direction of electric charge produces a change in direction and amount of magnetic flux around the wire. Change i... 
Anyone with tinnitus or hearing loss who is into "high-end" audio?
I completely lost hearing in the right ear 2 years ago (most likely virus). I went thru different treatments, that did nothing to my hearing but improved greatly my eyesight (not kidding). Life is funny, isn’t it? Loss of hearing brings white nois... 
MAC BOOK OR STREAMER ?
computers are inherently "noisy" and not built specifically to handle just musicBecause of that I decided to break connection between computer and audio system by WiFi.  That way nothing on computer side matters (playback program, computer speed, ...

An audio signal is purely a varying electrical voltage & current, just that . Nothing more.Let me start simplifying it:INDIAN SEE EAGLE OVER RABBIT  (instead of Ohm Law I=E/R)  ;)

Is that the reason, say, a Teflon dielectric, insulation, will cause ICs to sound better than cheap PVC insulation? Capacitance between plates is proportional to overlapping area and relative permittivity while inversely proportional to distance. ...

I would like to add, that it is as far as I can understand it and, of course, I can be wrong  (I was wrong once in 1964)  :)

Electric charge moves together with electromagnetic wave at fraction of the speed of light in vacuum, dependent on dielectric (60-70%).What moves slowly in the wire is electron (drift velocity) - practically standing still at the audio frequencies... 
What the heck do these terms mean?
Dry, wet, organic, musical - it reminds me color selection in a movie:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s33ScN4D-HU

"Way too much info"Guilty as charged  :)

When you use just plain lamp cord, energy flows between wires. It is strictly not between wires since electric fields bends, but also outside of the cable in-between planes like picture below shows:https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=http%3A%2... 
Simple question, or is it...
Electric current in the cable is a flow of electric charge.  Exactly the same amount of electric charge that leaves the source comes back to it.  Energy is delivered from source to load by electromagnetic field in between wires.  It is called Poyn... 
Do we ask too much of our audio systems?
I agree, you can get very close since sound at the concerts is often pretty bad (nose bleed seats or poor acoustics).  On the other hand some systems cost so much that it might be better to invite symphony orchestra into living room (multiple time... 
Ferrofluid questions.
@cbrents73   Thank you. 
Ferrofluid questions.
One day I'll have to replace ferrofluid as well.  Not only in tweeters but also in 6" midrange that uses it for suspension (no spiderweb suspension).   I know it can be obtained from Parts Express or Madison Speaker Store, but wonder if there is o... 
Reliable Digital Music Storage
I also found interesting chart at the bottom of this article:https://www.premiumusb.com/blog/how-long-can-usb-drives-lastIt shows 51 years average data retention for SSD.
