Speaker cable arrows???

I bought a used pair of Silverline Audio's Conductor cables. Plugged them in 
and was very pleased with the neutral sound I was getting. Bare wire to the 
speakers, and bananas on the amp end. Then I realized that the arrows on 
the cables where pointing towards the amp. OOPS, I reversed the path 
direction, and couldn't hear any difference. Zero.
My preference would be to have the bananas on the amp end.

Can I disobey the arrows, and run the cables effectively backwards?

geoffkait,


I have some odd feeling that I am not the only one missing points of your posts.

It is cute watching you flapping around pretending that you are ahead of the game. In this case, you simply cannot be. It would reverse all the theories of time, space, and pretty much everything else. Quantum physics and wire directionality would be turned upside down. Or back and forth.


Be careful with electrical statements, too. These guys seem to have read another book since 1950s. Maybe there was something new in 1970s. Keep it up.

And thank you for the meltdown, too, glubson. I suspect you just woke up and haven’t had your smart pill yet. Hope you feel better.

geoffkait,

I woke up long time ago, rode a bicycle for about 12 miles, talked to many people, had a few pictures taken, checked audiogon threads, sang Francesca with Fabrizio de Andre (on the radio), made a few decisions, and a few more things. No pills, though. You want update around lunch time?

Well if you do end up with any extra pills I will be happy to dispose of them for you, just as a favor of course.

jetter,

You may not want to handle them. They, quite obviously, do not work as intended.
