No one actually knows how to lculate what speaker cable they need

Confident and self assured cables meandering with a notable strut is apparently a good thing. (sorry...)

This is NOT in any way addressed to GK. I understand you have your own relationship to engineering and unique undertandings.
b4icu you seem to have a partial handle on some aspects of signal transmission physics, perhaps this link might be partly useful

If not, no problem. Most engineers understand that damping factor is swamped by the nature of driver, uniformly low amp output impedance, little effected by typical lengths of speaker wire.
Best wishes.

Why would you say: " No one actually knows how to calculate what speaker cable they need", when I just said I do?
Audio, as many other things is based on science. Not just listening and likes. All that knowledge that been put into the equipment is coming from calculation and monticules design.

Not by audiophiles that tried all possible options and ended up with one they like most.

This fact, of "No one actually knows how to calculate what speaker cable they need" is very sad. I'm in this hobby for 45 years, and it's time to change that.

During that long period of time, many firms took advantage of our ignorance, telling tells of ferry tails for tons of money, spent for their benefit, rather than ours.

 

My relationship to engineering is that I am one. And my understandings are by no means unique. Actually, my understandings are rather with the majority of high end audiophiles. Better luck next time.

I’d read the long article. It is not providing an answer, of what speakers cables I need to my system. It mostly tackles phenomena that are minor or do not exist at all with speaker cables.

I can NOT take that information that your article provides, and go shopping for my new speaker cables. 

The article may look impressing to a none engineering skilled eye. For an engineer (mostly analog) It will be on the edge of ridicules or absurd.

What I’m saying, is that I can do such a calculation and provide the accurate data of what cable I need. As that been repeated and the results were profound and consistence, I can tell that it works.
