speaker cable prices

So was not talking about the wall, I was talking about a speaker cable between an amp and a speaker which is AC, ie Alternating Current.  AC must travel in both directions for the circuit to function properly, if it doesn't the circuit does not work.  Alternating Current reverses direction many times per second depending upon the frequency, so which direction would be the "poor sounding direction"?  

My same questions about would also apply to anything you plug into the wall however in this case the frequency is 60hz in the US, which would be the be the correct direction?  No matter which way you point the arrows on your wires 50% of the time they are going the wrong way.

What you are suggesting implies that the wiring in a home or building is directional and therefore the wires should be installed in a specific direction.  Same would be true for the wires coming from the power transformer and on up the chain.  Have you ever heard of a wiring job that had to be done because the wires were installed in the wrong direction??

Another vote for Duelund 16 gage. $10/m or $120 for a 10 foot pair. No need to terminate.  I have been very pleased with mine. There is a thread on Agon about it.

abzrd, I’m afraid you’re not following me. I’m talking about any cable or fuse or cord, whether it’s the speaker cable, interconnect, digital cable, fuse or power cord. Any wire anywhere, transformer, internal wiring, anywhere. They’re all directional. In DC and AC circuits. Look at it this way. What’s easier, stroking a purcupine’s back in the same direction as his quills or against the direction of his quills?

Hmm, i’m not following you because you are mixing AC & DC & the rules of physics. If what you suggest was true all AC circuits would be wrong 50% of the time because the current goes both ways, if it didn’t the circuit would not work, period.

What you are suggesting is that ALL wire, including the wire in your home, inside your speakers, your amp, your pre-amp, etc for example has little arrows on it so the electricians know which way to wire your home, god forbid they have a "oh crap" we put the wires in backwards! The little arrows don’t exist because there is NO directionality in wire, electrons don’t know the difference!

abzrd, now I think you’re starting to see what I mean. Wires would be wrong 50% of the time. As regards the sound. That’s why Audioquest controls directionality for all their cables including their new line of power cords. Follow?

But let me correct you on one point. It’s not electrons that don’t know the difference (at least according to you), it’s the photons. Am I loosing you?
