Directionality of wire

>>>>I recently wrote him on the subject and he responded that absent shunting off to ground/dialectric designs, the idea of wire directionality is a complete myth. Same with resistors and fuses. <<<<<

He is going to alienate a good number of audiophiles if what you stated was an accurate quote of what he said.. Well... brand new IC’s may not be directional out of the box. And, brand new speaker cables may not be. But, after long use? Reversing the direction on my system is an obvious change in what is heard. As for fuses? He should not say that. It will make some audiophiles think he can not hear. On a good system? One that you are familiar with? It becomes obvious. That is... if the system has transparency to begin with. Sorry... it might turn out to be a form of "color blindness of the ears" that some do not realize they have. It may be a DNA issue. One that some can, and some can not, hear these differences. No. Its not my imagination. I have repeated this .. and every time I get the same results.

@genez,
Careful my friend, or you’ll be relegated to the loony bin. It appears that your own experiences are not good enough, no matter how many times you’ve heard it. You have to submit to rigorous double blind testing, before a panel of others peers, who are predetermined to just write it off as of no significance. 😉

All the best,

Everybody know wire has a direction.  The amp is at one end and the speakers are at the other end.  The music flows from the amp to the speaker.

It is important to reverse your speaker wires every 2 or 3 songs just like you rotate the tires on your car.

You do this to relieve electron fatigue caused by heat buildup in the wires.  Playing some cool jazz has a similar effect.

Also, playing rap music on wire - just once - will hurt the wire and it will need to be frozen and slowly thawed before the effects of the rap music will be gone from the wire.

David,

I would have to keep my car radio off if what you said is true. Rotate my tires after every two or three songs?   ;)

 I'd be better off listening only to talk radio if that were the case....

I still think those who can not hear the differences may simply have an unclassified condition, like colorblindness is to the eyes.  In this case,  its with the ears.



 

I have tested directional wires, all this means is the wire was drawn and Angeles
In that direction , and through my Electrostats speakers most any changes can be heard . Slightly better a bit more pronounced . BUT, if you leave opposite for 24 hours  everything is pretty much =.  It is Not a permanent change,
Cryogenic immersion is a permanent change for example and  + result
For example.
