Solid Core does not mean better. I have guys I deal with that prefer a higher cap/ darker tone. I have had customers recording with our Coil cables because they round off the high end in a way they like. It is all about what you like. I do not think Greg was trying to prove anything. He seems...

If you really want to have some fun go out and buy a bunch of different cables and listen. I have never been one of those guys to look at charts or theories it bores me to death. I play music because I didn't want to be a scientist. I have done this listening test a few times. Its great fun. I...

Justify ? It is how I understand it. I know what my ears tell me and is how I understand it to work. The principle makes sense to me and how I have always seen it explained. My ears tell me there is something making it clearer and it is the explanation I have seen and accept. The HiFi forums...

Not much to it really..... Imagine 20 tiny wires trying to carry the same audio signal a solid conductor can. Some of the distortion/congestion is said to come from the strands "fighting" for the same signal. This might explain the faster attack/feel a lot of players report. I can only speak...

I am not here to argue the science. I go by my ears into my amp. A better cable? Maybe not for some as the conductors are stiffer. There is an undeniable clarity difference. Its been used in the hifi world for awhile. I think AudioQuest was the first to bring it to market. We sure didnt invent...

Very cool thread and forum here. I work at Lava Cable. This test really shows the difference. Our SOAR cable is a solid core conductor cable. Most cables are stranded. What the solid core cable brings is the ultimate clarity. Gets rid of the boxiness and congestion a poorly made / low quality...
