@grannyring - Have you tried the actual Beldon wire I used?

If you did try it - did you use it in a Helix geometry cable?
I must admit I do not find it "closed in" and "dark sounding" at all - extremely spacious with a huge image and pinpoint placement of musicians.
Also, the impact of the dielectric tends to be reduced when employing a helix geometry because the conductors are almost at right angles with each other, resulting in very little surface area contact - hence low capacitance and low inductance
OK - so now you got me wondering.
Damn you - I thought I was done :-)
