Paulsax - Cable is capacitor. Its capacitance and inductance might play role. Purity of metal might play role as well. The rest of it is a big question mark.
I had two speaker cables with about similar highs, lows and midrange but one of them was lean sounding while the other was full sounding (male voices chestiness). Difference was very pronounced (lower midrange) with the same amp and speakers. I don't know how to explain it just with resistance, capacitance and inductance model.
I'm always very skeptical but at my first encounter with better than lamp cord speaker cable - Audioquest Indigo (sold by foot) I experienced very muffled sound for first 30 min then very bright sound that eventually settled. People claim that there is no break-in with cables and nothing is better than lamp cord.
