@jea48  You seem to accept that Light is the fastest-moving stuff in our universe. It travels at 186,000 miles per second (300,000 km/sec) I'd add "in a vacuum" just for completeness. You would, I hope, agree that low frequency electromagnet...

@jea48  Did you do your practical hospital wiring based on the "false" teachings from your apprenticeship, or based on what you learned here?  Be honest. Maybe you were the sparkie that "forgot" to connect The Canberra Hospital's UPS to the main...

@jea48  I see you didn't bad mouth Ralph Morrison.  Ralph Morrison What is Electronics "If we accept the idea that fields carry energy in space, it must be true at all frequencies. That is the law. If it is true for light, it must also be true...

@jea48  I learned in 2010 what I was taught in K thru12 was wrong how electricity works.... Four years of electrical apprenticeship training I was taught the same wrong crap Nevertheless, it would be helpful if you could remember how to apply ...

For those who find it hard or impossible to visualise how a signal can travel faster than the stuff it travels through, consider how sound reaches your ears from a loud speaker. Air comprises molecules randomly whizzing about in all directions, a...

@jea48 I seem to recall that in another post you said you learnt your electricity from this forum? Could I suggest reading a couple of recognised textbooks? Also, science advances when researchers publish peer-reviewed papers in scientific period...

@rodman99999 That particular phenomenon (second paragraph in above article) has been accepted by Physicists, for decades Almost a century, in fact!  But quantum entanglement has no practical applicability to music reproduction today.  It may i...

Pure Silver Wire
@carlsbad2 while what you say is correct, it doesn't cause silver to preferentially transit one frequency over another It might change the discussion focus, when debating digital interconnects, from resistivity to the skin effect at megahertz ... 
Pure Silver Wire
@carlsbad2  digital signals are 1s and 0s so lows and highs are transmitted equally Strictly, digital 1s and 0s are interpreted from analog waveforms approximating square waves.  Picking the leading edge is important from a jitter perspective.... 
«40% Of Audiophiles Are Dying And No One Is Doing Anything About It!»
When stereo was first released, the naysayers claimed people would not spend nearly double what a mono system cost, just for better sound. Now many audiophiles are locked into 2-channel sound when the rest of the affluent world has multi-channel ...

@rodman99999 Thanks, your reference https://www.allaboutcircuits.com/video-tutorials/applications-of-sinusoidal-signals/ has a nice illustration of what I described as square wave wobbles - relevant for digital signals. This article explains an... 
I feel for you
@tomic601 I had to look Enrico up to confirm my suspicion! Apparently, he got interested in physics when he found an old maths/physics book written in Latin. I never understood why I had to pass Latin before being allowed to study Physics at Cam...

@tomic601  see Enrico Fermi… and just why he and his wife fled Germany… he of course just a refugee immigrant…   Enrico fled Italy, but for the same reasons he would have fled Germany had he lived there ...

@lewm @ghdprentice I am convinced the Japanese vendor itsuwa-shop got confused about their Jico products. Their first response was "I checked with the supplier and they said it was correct ". I sent details gleaned from your posts plus screens...
