Should i bear in mind the awg for a particular wire? Wires in EA store come in varying awg. What difference does it make if any?
The more awg the thicker gauge of cable means lower the resistance means less electrons get loose on thier way
*not a physicist, just google cus this question intrigued me as well*
The greater the awg, the thinner the wire.
The thinner the wire, the more resistance there is
In a perfect setting you'd want a pure conductor with zero resistance, or an extremely short wire approaching zero length
For practical reasons, however, thinner wire, almost always in litz, is used for personal audio since it is flexible.
Awg is really taken in account when working with larger speaker setups. With longer wires increasing impedance, a speaker can experience power loss if a high awg, high resistance cable is used. Therefore, thicker gauge (and thicker in general) cables are used in those cases
For a 1.5m iem cable, awg doesnt matter as much as the metal being used, the purity of that metal, if any treatment or insulation has been added to it, and (according to some) the geometry of the weave.
If I'm wrong lemme know please
