Insertion loss and return loss are relevant for RF in antennas and microwave but not audio in a few feet of wire.
So you think wire conductors in cables are directional? Think again...
Here is a very relevant discussion among physicists about the directionality...the way signal and electrons should flow... based on conductor orientation. Some esoteric, high-end manufacturers say they listen to each conductor to see which way the signal should flow for the best audio quality.

A good article from a company I place a lot of credience in (post below)! I do believe in cable directionality and place all my cables / interconnects accordingly. I also believe in Oxygen free copper and directional grain flow effects. I also believe in silver end connectors over gold plated end connectors. Differences are audible and repeatable. I'm happy....... https://www.audioquest.com/theory-education/article/83-directionality-its-all-about-noise |
