So you think wire conductors in cables are directional? Think again...

From Chord!
Almost all speaker cables, in fact almost all audio cables, be they for digital or analogue are, in our experience, directional in that the sound will be better with the cable connected in a specific direction. Chord speaker cables should be connected so that the print on the cable reads in the direction of the signal.

Especially if the cable is outfitted with male and female connectors at each end. Low impedance mic cables and balanced interconnects come to mind...because that is required to actually connect the cables. For unbalanced coaxial style cables grounded at each end, with the same type of connector at each end, the direction does not matter. Speaker cables terminated with different connectors at each end are obviously directional as to how it's connected. Bare wire...does not matter. 

Science does not exist to prove or disprove human experience. Science is nothing more than a method that is has been proven to be the most reliable one for eventually figuring out how the world works.

Please do try and keep these different ideas separate and clear in your mind. If you can just manage to do this one thing it will be amazing how much more clear your understanding of so many things will become over time. Not now, maybe not tomorrow, but gradually over time.

djones,
Has your side of the aisle ever asked you to stop helping them? In your entire life have you ever produced an applicable analogy?
