Information and Theory

Cable 101 by lavacable.com

 

 

http://www.st-andrews.ac.uk/~jcgl/Scots_Gu...fect/page1.html

 

talks about skin effect, cable diameter/spacing, frequency delay and power loss.

 

one interesting finding is thicker the wire and wider the spacing, the timing of bass and treble reaching the speaker/driver first gets more unbalance(page 5). And also the more skin effect cable has, the worser the treble rolloff(page 2).
