scientific double blinded cable test

Just to clarify again, I’m saying all wire is directional. The wire in all fuses, the wire in interconnects, speaker wire, the wire in power cords, internal speaker wire, transformers, the wire in capacitors, you name it. That’s why I suggested all one has to do to test this theory is flip the interconnects around assuming they aren’t shielded. But even if they are shielded it might be worth a shot. Somebody, please, put this puppy to rest! 🐶

I would not question your assertion that in some fashion, the drawing/manufacturing process results in (however minute) directional differences in wire.  I do question (actually doubt) whether you, or anybody, can actually hear the result of those differences when the wire is used in an audio system, no matter how high quality the system.

You can probably be trained to hear them.

Afterward you will be ruined. Like finding flaws in people whom you had the greatest amount of respect for, prior.

gdhal"Would you say that wire is directional? And, if you answer yes, would you say you could *hear* a difference if connected one direction or another?If you answer yes to both, I have a business proposition - directly related to this thread - for you (or anyone who answers yes to both questions for that matter). Broadly, the proposition involves either a blind or double blind test where it is my position that you *cannot* reliably hear a difference, and it would be your position that you could reliably hear a difference. If interested, and if the amount is worthwhile (low five figures?) we can have our attorney’s draw up the contracts, establish an escrow account and so on."

Are we talking USD here when you reference "low five figures"" If so, would $25,000 USD be acceptable to you? I believe you are in the US so this would involve air travel to me you need to make this worthwhile I will probably donate my money to a good cause after I complete your test. We would each put this money as cash into escrow to insure payment!

Once again, people are glossing over some things here. On another thread, someone posted that Pink Floyd sound engineers built a recording studio and it details what they went through to get it right.
About 2/3s of the way down in the article, they tried reversing cables and all of them heard a different, and better direction. It was quite obvious. Then even heard a difference in the grounding cables direction.

Why is it that some here only rely on what can be measured and not heard? You're invoking a rather backward way of thinking. One analogy that comes to mind is with our justice system. Any judge will tell you that circumstantial evidence carries every bit of weight as direct evidence. 

Without circumstantial evidence (like actually hearing) there would be no progress. It leads us to figure out, to backward engineer something so as to fit and validate our observations. 

To someone thinking outside the box, it's painfully obvious that what is presently being measured isn't fully being measured. Most likely due to the limits of the test equipment. Naysayers should be wearing robes and hold fast to their manual, armed with switches to punish those who'd dare disagree. 

All the best,
