How Electricity Actually Works

carlsbad, it's that way on every forum I've been a member of. We have a generation or more that has been taught that any thought that enters their head is valid. I was a member of a gun forum for years. There were people that owned blued pistols who stripped the bluing off so that they'd look like the stainless pistols that others owned. Both shiny silver, right? Uhm, no. Hey, at least here no one has shot themselves yet, knock on wood.

@builder3 I expect most here are from an older generation but who have equally invalid reasons for believing what they think is correct.

electric signal travels through the conductor approximately 5c i.e. 5 speeds of light.

@czarivey 

What is the carrier through the conductor at such a high speed?

 Not electrons...

Not electric charge...

@deludedaudiophile 

My take-away as far as audio goes is that proximity of cabling to each other matters.  This is well known and I don't think it is even arguable at this stage of the game.
