As far as RCA sub cables go, I’ve only compared DH Labs sub cables, and not against cables that are meant for full frequencies. That said, the DH Labs Thunder cable, which is made of pure silver coated copper conductors, proprietary shielding and solid copper connectors were much higher performers than the DH Labs Sun Sonic cable which uses copper conductors. Stepping up to the Thunder resulted in much improved speed, definition and amount of kick. The Sub Sonic was much rounder and slower in comparison.

Interconnect cables are typically voltage devices as the input impedance is very high.
The speed of electricity is the same in all conductors, and it is about a million times higher than the speed of sound. |
@holmz You are correct in both points but it does not necessarily prove me wrong. Any lowering in impedance, say from an improved dielectric and quality of conductor typically results in a faster, more open sound. Yes there may be very little current, but whatever is there, you should want instantaneously. |
