Can't seem to find any thread or topic as to why such a pattern exist. What is the purpose or benefit of that? Anyone care to explain?
Read up on litz braiding guys. There is a decent chunk of benefit to many many braided wires caring the same signal.
It's been thorougly debated in the past that you should never braid different sigals, as this would increase crosstalk....it looks audiophile and somehow justifies the ridiculous amounts asked by premium cables sellers, but some ppl here on head-fi came with proofs that braiding stereo signal is actually a terrible idea. The search engine is pretty borked atm, so google would be a better option to locate those threads: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&source=hp&q=braid+crosstalk+site%3Awww.head-fi.org&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=

"If you read the litz website very carefully you will see that he strictly instructs not to braid multiple signals together, as that creates alot of crosstalk. A proper litz braided cable has 4 wires for each channel, seperately braided."
