Audioengr that's outstanding! I am excited to learn that you've come out with a cable like that. I certainly wish you the greatest success with it.
If when your cable comes out, you would like to put it against one of Dave Elrod's Signature cables, that would be fantastic! If your cable sounds better - I'll eat my hat (so to speak) and buy a few of 'em from ya.
Hey... you know? Sean mentioned that you have really high grade measurement equipment. Maybe you could do us all a favor and buy a few used high end cables on Audiogon - measure them and then resell. You would not loose any money other than maybe shipping - which you could write off as a business expense.
Then.... YOU can publish the measurements on your website. Hey! That's a great idea!!! Then there would be no mystery, no pouting and wishing that other cable manufacturers published their own measurements.
The truth be told!! Audioengr...you have the power!
But if you do this, wont it be amazing to find out how poorly these things measure and at the same time how fantastic they sound?

Dude... if you had an amazing recipe for Chocolate Chip Cookies would YOU publish the theory on how they were made and why they taste good? Its the same set of ingredients everyone else uses isn't it?
If you're smart you wouldn't share that information and likewise, I am sure that cable manufacturers have plausable theory's - that's how they maintain a "signature sound" (or flavor if you will) They just don't publish the info so that every Joe Blow DIY guy can duplicate their efforts.
If making a cable sound good was as SIMPLE as making it measure good, every single manufacturer out there would be publishing their measurements and people would buy the cable that measured best. It would be a simple world.
Unfortunately that is not the world we live in. Its tough... we actually have to listen for ourselves and decide what's best instead of just looking at SPICE simulations. Darn! I hate listening!!!

If other manufacturers would publish measurements on their cords, at least a comparison could be made.

I don't believe there is another manufacturer that has a plausible theory of why one power cord sounds better than another. At least I have this.
