Future of cables!

Knot would introduce inductance for common mode signal and no inductance for normal mode (common mode choke), but I doubt that one turn would make any difference.   I would rather put as many turns as possible on large toroidal ferrite core (with high permeability).  IMHO it is waste of time and effort if you don't have noisy power.  On the other hand there is nothing wrong with "placebo effect" if it makes you feel better .  At least it doesn't cost a lot in comparison to other "improvements".

Gee whiz, guys, I thought some clever and curious fellow would at least try the square knot before passing judgment. Too superstitious, I reckon. What are you afraid of? This looks a lot like if it’s not in Wikipedia it’s not real syndrome.

"...trying knots in cables isn't science."

Unless you try some of those sailor's knots. That is an art form of science.

Just tried the knots....choked the sound to death.
No Bueno

bryhifi,

Add garlic. Garlic knots are usually quite fine. They give more flavorful presentation.
