I'm still a little confused on the orientation for the batteries (it seems like I'm not the only one). If a key part of this tweak is to orient the weak electromagnetic field from the batteries to mirror the current flow in the signal cable shouldn't the Negative "-" terminal on the battery point towards the destination? I thought that electrons have negative polarity and flow from - to +, However, for whatever reason way-back-in-the-day the labeling convention was established that depicted the flow as being + to -, hence the markings on batteries today. Can someone clear that up for me?
cheapest cable upgrade ever
I have recently been playing with a very cheap upgrade of signal carrying cables: Attach one or two 1.5V AAA batteries with the ‘-‘ pole in the direction of the signal’s source. Simple strapping on with electrical tape) suffices, no need to connect anything. The benefits are very audible. The weak electric field conditions the outer layer of the conductor to improve electron flow, resulting in a strong increase in transparency and dimensionality. This works particularly well on the digital cable going into the router and streamer as well as the speaker cables (on the latter ‘+’ alligns with plus and ‘-‘ with minus, i.e. two batteries per single post speaker.
At a minimum it is a low cost bit of fun
