At 500mw levels it ain't gonna happen in that frequency range. Get up in RF spectrum sure, but not at under 20KHz. If it did, we'd still be using litz wire. If someone says "cable x sounds better than cable y" they're either selling something, or on drugs. With speaker wire, sure there's a difference, but not between brands, a $20 spool of 12 gauge wire will sound as good a $4000 spool of 12 gauge wire. The whole cable thing is BS. Go for quality build, low resistance and you'll be good to go. |
