The wire in cables and fuses is physically asymmetrical. That’s why resistance measures slightly lower end to end one way than the other. Guess which way sounds better.
Don't forget to burn in your connectors as well. Sometimes it may take longer so I reuse my old connecxtors. Also, the direction is being able to read the wire text from the amp to the speakers is correct.
And how can resistance measure lower at one end than the other? Stupid pseudoscience garbage. Measure a resistor with leads one way, then flip them around, and they measure the same. I’VE DONE IT. I build amplifiers.
Fuses, HAH!
NO clothes.
But then I guess many of you are laughing because I'm somewhat late to this game. Very funny.
Kaity has been peddling that snake oil for a long time with no proof. Somewhere somebody posted a link to a table that described variations in the directions of a fuse, but the deviations showed up out past a thousandth of an ohm, which I'm sure you're aware is completely insignificant. He also carries this nonsense over to caps claiming caps are directional because of the lead wires. Nevermind the fact outside foil always goes to ground... In his world the wire directionally rules the day. I've asked him how to make directionally correct printed circuit board. He's got nothing. He can't seem to explain why a wire passing an AC signal behaving like a diode is good either.
