Oh c'mon boys the end game is near.....

The great cable debate is nearing a conclusion.

In a topic were using 'comparible' as a default disclaimer is a joke....i.e all cables are exactly the same - full stop or they are not, in which case it's logical there can be differences in the presentation of the music you hear via them.....

What say you?

I say two cables of equal resistance have little choice but to sound identical. It's those dratted laws of physics.?

We are real close now Trev, real close.

'equal resistance'

All the exotic compositions available and you wanna drop 'equal resistance' in....

Hence all cables MUST conform to the most basic cable - copper around a non conductive core for example?

Honestly?

Nope!!!

Lol....let me give you the chance to edit, you know if you stick with nope then the 'equal resistance' and 'comparible' disclaimers is thrown out the window and your beloved science kicks you in the a$$.....right?

Most cables have a non-conductive outer around a conductive core.  Not the way you said, LOL.

Which cables that?

You take a cheap cable take a strand and cut it and look at the cross section......

It'll look like a copper strand because......

Wibble.

Does this mean wiki confirmed you're wrong..... *ROFL*

No, I'm perfectly correct!

This is like watching an intellectual clash of the titans dueling it out to the death.

More like shooting a frog in a bucket - question is who's the frog and who's holding the gun.

'Wibble'.....does that sound like a frog..... :)

It's supposed to be "Fish in a barrel" and the word is "Wibble" not "Wibbit".

Nope, I meant a frog in a bucket....

And blame the spell corrector - edited it anyway...... ;-)

What's your favourite type of cake Thompson?

Steve, if you want to do the cheerleading/small cellmate thing for Trev fine. Honestly I have no problem with that.

But please add to the conversation - what's wrong with you?

If you disagree with me.... Cool. But give your reasoning or don't bother to respond and let the thread die.

Trev has no answers, it's clear.......if you want to save him.... Save him.

That TrevC eh? What a wierdo.

Imagine a cable with the insulation on the outside. LOL you guys. Who's ever heard of such a crazy thing.

The insulation?

Are you being deliberately stupid now?

Hi Vlad.

I'm suprised that anyone else is still reading this rubbish TBH. I thought it was just me and Thompson.

You and I Steve?.....I thought it was TrevC I was dealing with!

Thought you were trying to save him.

This always happens when I'm right though.....lol.

I was done with this thread a few pages ago till Chebby drew me back in.

Ahwell.......

So... A question for Thompson.

Does a thick cable have less resistance than a thin cable of the same material?

Proportionally - do the math, did you not see the I=V/R example!

Its all relative.

But don't think of it as resistance but instead of the capacity to carry an electrical signal.

I prefer to think of cables as water pipes and music as the cherry flavoured custard being pumped through them. It makes it easier to visualise that way.
