This probably one of the most profoundly anti-scientific and outright absurd statements I have ever heard in a while.
There
is no scientific model that tells us that everything that could
possibly affect sound is currently known … and there never will be.
We
have recently discovered that all the matter that we can perceive
amounts to less than 10% of the total mass of the matter in the
universe. In excess of 90% of the mass of our universe we are unable to
observe, and in our absolute ignorance we refer to it as “dark matter”
and “dark energy”. We know it exist solely because we can see it affect
what we can see. What it is, we do not have the faintest clue.
The
idea that your 35 years in electronics makes you knowledgeable of
everything that could possibly effect sound is pure fantasy. Your
statement should read “That capacitance albeit very very low, is the
only characteristic that I know of that will effect sound.”
You are both wrong. The argument is senseless. There are many more design factors. Capacitance is more applicable to tonearm leads. There is no sense in educating you here because your response is ignorant to a post that is also wrong. If you want an accurate path, start by studying characteristic impedance and bandwidth. Download a simulator, then build 30 different cable types and report back. Else both of you will spend a lot of money, never be satisfied with a cable, and never discuss it knowledgeably.
