How Electricity Actually Works

@jea48 Thanks for the links, Jim. Upon review, rcrumps concern and method was to make certain that each hot wire and each return wire was oriented in the opposite direction so as to maximize the current-carrying advantages of the wire’s direction. He recommended listening to the cable before deciding which way to install it, and then, supposedly, marking the finished cable’s optimum directionality. And, further the discussion applied only to solid core conductors. And they were building interconnects. I’m sure that a cable’s directionality is related to the topic of this thread, How Electricity Works, I just not sure how. The concept of wire being directional was new to me, and I was curious, thanks again for helping me out. 

Come on guys, I read some of that Crump stuff. The best word I can come up with is lunacy. If you are experiencing:

"Interconnects or speaker wires that have pianos wandering all over the stage normally have their signal and return going in the same direction"

It is time to put down the wacky tobaccy or whatever else you are on, or throw out the record or pick a different recording. This sounds like someone who has convinced themselves of something, and now hears it all the time. I don’t think that is wire direction, I think that is paranoia. If there is any validity to this audiophile tale, I expect it comes down to cleaning contacts and eventually getting it right, but it could have gone either way, literally.

The electrons have to fight their way along the wrong direction, and have an easy path going the right way.

?? What the crap? Maybe that's why electrons only drift about .02 micrometers in AC they're always confused as to the right direction.
