Directionality Explained


I have read it argued against by those who think they know
Here is proof
Paul Speltz Founder of ANTICABLES shares his thoughts about wire directionality. Dear Fellow Audiophiles, As an electronic engineer, I struggled years ago with the idea of wire being directional because it did not fit into any of the electrical models I had learned. It simply did not make sense to me that an alternating music signal should favor a direction in a conductor. One of the great things about our audio hobby is that we are able to hear things well before we can explain them; and just because we can’t explain something, doesn't mean that it is not real.

"If I were you I’d march right down to whatever podunk school you went to and ask for your money back which probably wasn’t much anyway."
I am beyond proud. Like every parent is when her/his little one finally shows she/he paid attention.
I feel bad for the guy who tried to look for the "chevron" shape in the wire.  It's like trying to look for a resistor in the wire because the wire has resistance.  

Also AC current is not 100% AC.  There's aspect of it that is like DC.
The “chevron pattern“ below the surface of the wire - the deformation of the copper atomic structure - would be damn hard to see unless you had Superman’s X-Ray vision. 👀 Furthermore the chevron pattern on the surface of the wire, if that’s even there, which I’m not sure it is, doesn’t necessarily mean anything. So, far we’re not anywhere closer to an explanation than when we started. 
glubson, what in tarnation are you mumbling about now? Are you off your meds or on your meds? 
geoffkait,

"glubson, what in tarnation are you mumbling about now? Are you off your meds or on your meds?"
I am happy that you are still using my "ask school to give you money back" invention from almost two years ago as your joking point. I guess it was a good one then, too.
