Directional cables - what does that really mean?

I wish I didn’t believe in cable directionality but its real in some, but not all, instances. I have refrained from posting on this topic because I don’t want to distract the skeptics from their planning phases  of storming Area 51.

other things that benefit from directionality:
1) swallowing food is better in one direction than the other
2) my experiments indicate that, in general, speakers tend to sound better facing the listener than otherwise
3) incoming power, as opposed to outgoing, tends to positively affect sound reproduction
4) I also prefer incoming fund flows to outgoing

peace...

At least it gives me something to chew on while I am sipping Cabernet Sauvignon lols.

Why all the technical discussion. Just be sure arrow points toward instrument you are plugging it in too. My audioauest have arrows on cable. Arrow toward amp. Arrow toward speakers. Best sound when you do this. 

by the way, can also try look for siver($) interconnect or rca or make one diy.

i would prefer the regular, original or normal rca than directional. simpler the better.

bottom line is avoid interference, use short cables if possible, separate cables to each other and power line, turn off other signal or tv or other equipment, that is isolate the system. even cell phone. these should eliminate or reduce hum..but everything start from quality amplifier/receiver, turntable, cassette player, digital player and the speaker. and also you dont hear the normal hum while playing or hearing the music.

i am so amazed of the technical or engineering discussion. so many talented people here. they must be engineer, inventor, professor or even scientist or even astrounaut who can tell. by the way i only have glimpse of the ideas and i guess learned some basics. but am amazed of the deep technical exposition even i dont understand fully or not at all and its really fun and surprised me.

and by the way, no worry too much of the normal hum of the audio. hum of passing car, refrigerator, electric fan, etc is much louder. happy listening.

and beside, you dont hear hum when music is playing.

thanks, daniel
