Technical and scientific discussion of amps, cables and other topics.

RE: TG Audio speaker cables and directionality

I say that because it's true. You can ignore the electrons/current/signal when it is traveling in the opposite direction, i.e., the direction away from the speakers. The "signal" on both wires + and - traveling toward the speakers - is the one that makes the speaker diaphragms move out and in. That's why wire is *always* "directional" AC circuits. That's why Bob Crump was incorrect how he constructed his cables, how he thought directionality worked. At least he tried.

The physical asymmetry of the conductor metal is what makes the wire/cable sound better, less distorted in one direction vs the other direction. One assumes the drift electrons have a more rigorous route to travel in the "bad" direction.

Please stop repeating the same old audiophile lie, "AC cables can't be directional because the current travels in both directions."
