Sadly, I possess no powers that enable me to know how anything sounds by looking. Or measuring. The only cable measurement I have any faith in at all is length. The only way I know to determine how something sounds is to hook it up and listen.
Might be a while. But I am working on it.
It's pretty remarkable that people, without taking time to read and understand threads will continually jump to wrong conclusions.
The thread panned Max's "research" and white paper which grossly flawed in so many ways that the best thing to do would have been just to delete it.
Max did create a low inductance cable, and yes just like the Alpha Core Goertz essentially. We know that a low inductance cable is generally preferable, within limits, and that too much capacitance makes some amps unhappy. Really, not much more was said in this thread, though Max did attempt unsuccessful to establish he was right when it should have been quite obvious early on he was not. These issues and his inaccurate understanding of cable impedance at audio frequencies was pointed out to him almost a year ago on ASR. A regular reaction to that would be to research and understand if you are wrong or not before publishing a paper.
