How to maximise loop area in one easy step. Sigh. Do you want to learn anything or are you just enjoying throwing out overpriced garbage for us to tut over?
I confess to hand braiding Litz wire (12 - #24 PTFE wire wrap wire) for a power amp once. Looked nice don't think it by it self did anything.
The designer of the power cables Garth Powell said that the braiding is just to make it easier to handle the cables and Bend them.
Yes, try twisting three wires together without a sheath of some kind..... the science of friction?
Clearly he flunked EM 101. He should be sent to a proper lab* to get an edukashion in how real men handle power.

Bare Naked Ladies???, some good tunes.
I wonder, that may be three separate cords of three conductor. They bought a 14awg extension cord from home depot, cut it into three lengths, then paralleled all the greens, all the blacks, and all the whites.
And, because that cord had thick wire insulation, the characteristic impedance of the cable is about 200 ohms...divided by three, 66.6 ohms.
Then, make it 10 feet long, so the characteristic impedance-length product is 666.
Mark of the devil...that's a baaaad cord, nuttin good can come of it..

Yeah, one would think it should be possible to channel all that energy into something useful. But don't hold your breath.
The dozens schemes to wire an amp...
Yep, shame about that thread.....um...it's yours isn't it?....um.....and....errrr

While what in fact probably happened was:
Correctly chosen and placed ferrites can reduce noise/interference, but some audiophiles enjoy the added background noise (it seems to add definition or sparkle). So they are less happy with the more accurate (less interference) sound.
Braiding looks nice, and has the advantage that it is rarely used in real engineering nowadays. Therefore it must be good for sound.
Not sure if that is cotton covering. That has exactly the same advantages for sound. Of course, as a dielectric/insulator cotton is almost useless and was only used back in the days when there were few alternatives.

Just wondering why anyone would buy a cable that seems designed to sound its best in a hurricane? 🙂
