| directional cables? AlmargSimply_q, could you clarify what you mean when you say that electrons drift under ac conditions?Sure.Are you saying that they drift back and forth over a very short distance within the cable, as I indicated in my post yesterday? Meaning that... | |
| directional cables? HermanAs you realize, In a DC circuit the energy flows very fast from source to load and the electrons drift very slowly around the circuit. In an AC circuit the energy also travels very fast from source to load while the electrons vibrate back an... | |
| directional cables? HermanThe moniker contains the word simply, it was not an insult any more than referring to Mr. Romgard is.My apologies. I thought you had previously used "Simply" and then switched to "Simple" in the post I was replying to. I see now that you had... | |
| directional cables? HermanMr. Simple...No need for insults.The electrons that were at the power plant are not now flowing through the computer monitor you are reading this on.If you really want to get technical, that's not entirely true. Some of them may well be. But... | |
| directional cables? AlmargAgreed?Works for me. | |
| directional cables? HermanMr Simple, I decided the stuff in my last post about positive charges really didn't relate to your response so I deleted it.Ah. I didn't know users could edit or delete their posts. Or are you a moderator?I see what you mean but by defintion... | |
| directional cables? KijankiOnce again - Electric current is a flow of charge ALONE. At 1kHz electrons are practically standing still (vibrating +/-0.0001mm) NEVER MOVING ALONG THE CABLE while charge is reaching destination with almost speed of light (0.6-0.7).Electro... | |
| directional cables? HermanI took that to mean you disagreed that current was the flow of charges since I don't see any other way to read that statement.I don't see how you could have taken it that way.The original poster claimed that current was the flow of charge, n... | |
| directional cables? HermanI never said that to simply Q, I pointed out an error in his statement about current not being the flow of charges.I never said that. | |
| How to manufacture a cable ? I am talking more about the manufacturing process.If I decide to subcontract, where do I find a good one ?There's New England Wire, Calmont and Bay Associates just to name a few. Might also want to talk to Hal Marker at HM Wire. He can be a very g... | |
| directional cables? I ran across this white paper about a year ago. It may be of interest to you EEs and such.Smoke and mirrors."We have presented a new distortion model that accurately predicts the audible behavior of the various metals in common use for audio appli... | |
| directional cables? Radio signals are in fact induced in in the cable (since shield most likely does nothing to stop it) but because of skin effect they travel on the outside of the cable - shield (field inside cancels).Shielding basically works by two means; reflect... | |
| directional cables? What if my pre amp (or TT or phono pre) has no ground pin on the power cord, just the power amp?Consider yourself lucky. Provided of course that the chassis meet Class II specs and don't actually require the safety ground. The safety ground is the... | |
| directional cables? ???? I missed it before but that makes absolutely no sense. You can't separate the positive and negative alternations of a signal with a cable any more than you can have a magnet with one pole.He's not talking about the positive and negative alter... | |
| directional cables? Nsgarch - electric current is a flow of charge and not a flow of electrons. Electrons move very slow - at about 0.1mm/s (drift velocity).I'm afraid that's incorrect. Current flow is indeed a flow of electrons. Electrons ARE the charge carriers, wh... |
