Directionality Explained


I have read it argued against by those who think they know
Here is proof
Paul Speltz Founder of ANTICABLES shares his thoughts about wire directionality. Dear Fellow Audiophiles, As an electronic engineer, I struggled years ago with the idea of wire being directional because it did not fit into any of the electrical models I had learned. It simply did not make sense to me that an alternating music signal should favor a direction in a conductor. One of the great things about our audio hobby is that we are able to hear things well before we can explain them; and just because we can’t explain something, doesn't mean that it is not real.

It seems that it works. I just ordered one original King to celebrate geoffkait's 22000 and my 5000. And you guys thought I was kidding.
Now that bride and groom, have given themselves to each other by solemn vows, with the joining of hands and the giving and receiving of rings, I pronounce that they are husband and wife, in the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. You may now kiss the bride


So what differences do people hear when cables are in the preferred direction versus the opposite? For an audible difference the cable must be imparting some specific signature, be it distortion, attenuation or or some other characteristic. Whether it is measurable or otherwise quantifiable is arbitrary. I’m willing to accept that there is a qualitative difference that some people are capable of detecting.

Since the charge moving through the cable is variable with the audio signal, only one side of that signal is moving charge in the preferred direction. Therefore, whatever sonic signature is imparted to the signal, it is acting differently on the positive part of the waveform than the negative part. If the cable is reversed then the characteristic signature is inverted and the opposite polarity of the waveform is moving charge in the preferred direction.

So if the cable is directional then in order to hear it, one would need to be able to differentiate between the cable’s effect on the positive part of the signal versus the negative part.

Has anyone done the experiment of listening to a system in all 4 configurations?

Cable direction A - non-inverted
Cable direction A - inverted
Cable direction B - non-inverted
Cable direction B - inverted

Somebody must have tried this, right?

Ah, - and then what about 'reverse-burnin' !?! 
And then revers burn-in yet AGAIN?!?... 🤔 

Them charges might get so highly confused, an' make that cable sound no good then either way, eh? 😢 What say y'all? 

Will this EVER come to any conclusion, (with or without a' Sachertort'n, ge hörst, jetz' sag a mal ?) 🤔 

🎂 now please...! 😉
