My turn to step in the proverbial dogt#rd and show all I'm an audiophool, not an audiophile.
The audio cable in the pic ranges in price from thousands per metre to R9.- odd per metre.
All of these wires have almost equal quantities of bright, shiny OFC copper inside. Ja, I counted and measured the wires. Over a given length of say 1.2 metres, all show the same measurement on my Fluke but I can't measure capacitance. The sheathing varies from the substantial to the sufficient. Some cable has aluminised wrap over the conductor, others not.
We all know there's a lot of crap cable out there, often at mindblowing prices.
So please enlighten me. Are we listening to sheathing bling, locking WBT's or what??
