It gets interesting in that with the gallium-indum-tin eutectic, the electron flow forms into crystal/lattice structures due specifically to the combination of native alignment/lattice function and the load itself. Thus, the signal and the pathway are as one, moreso than that of a solidus lattice structure like a mass aggregate element. This leads to a more pure signal than any solid wire can enable or aid, with much less noise function. A full magnitude beyond, even as an initial starting point.

This, to the point that the cables show vanishingly low levels of capacitance, and thus the ability to go out to the multi-gigahertz range.

The proof in that, is when you take a long strand, maybe 5 meters worth, wrap it around an old plastic spool, to form a traditional 'inductor', then put signal through it.

When the signal is sharply terminated at the peak of load values, the signal drops off like a rock (comparatively speaking), as the fluid reacts at Planck length, and re-orients itself locally, not along lattice structure constraints, in the pure sense. There is no inductance curve (or, more correctly -expected complex z), there is simply a vanishing of the signal and inter-molecular local Planck length dissipation/realignment timing parameters.

Which means it is potentially a good vehicle for testing Sakharov's induced gravity:

~~~~~~~~~
Induced gravity (or emergent gravity) is an idea in quantum gravity that space-time background emerges as a mean field approximation of underlying microscopic degrees of freedom, similar to the fluid mechanics approximation of Bose–Einstein condensates. The concept was originally proposed by Andrei Sakharov in 1967.

Sakharov observed that many condensed matter systems give rise to emergent phenomena which are identical to general relativity. For example, crystal defects can look like curvature and torsion in an Einstein-Cartan spacetime. This allows one to create a theory of gravity with torsion from a World Crystal model of spacetime[1] in which the lattice spacing is of the order of a Planck length. Sakharov's idea was to start with an arbitrary background pseudo-Riemannian manifold (in modern treatments, possibly with torsion) and introduce quantum fields (matter) on it but not introduce any gravitational dynamics explicitly. This gives rise to an effective action which to one-loop order contains the Einstein-Hilbert action with a cosmological constant. In other words, general relativity arises as an emergent property of matter fields and is not put in by hand. On the other hand, such models typically predict huge cosmological constants.

Some argue[who?] that the particular models proposed by Sakharov and others have been proven impossible by the Weinberg-Witten theorem. But, models with emergent gravity are always possible as long as other things, such as spacetime dimensions, emerge together with gravity. Developments in AdS/CFT correspondence after 1997 suggest that the microphysical degrees of freedom in induced gravity might be radically different. The bulk space-time arises as an emergent phenomenon of the quantum degrees of freedom that live in the boundary of the space-time.

Wow, you really do that better than I do. OK, let me give it a second try:

We have to consider the effect on the polaron lattice stemming from the charge carriers, whose non-local gauge invariance is assured by the commonly believed but highly mistaken Bell's Theorem. A few minutes of thought will make clear that the spin interactions, at least in an Ising sense, dynamically correlate to the formation of quantized field distortions. If we consider the wire to be a collection of creation/annihilation operators acting in a synchronous fashion, clearly groups beyond SU(3) are needed to reconcile any flow of informational resonances, at least in a thermodynamic sense. The point of having a liquid with only local and transient order is that the quantum entropy can be averaged out, at least within the scope of Planck time, leaving the pure information.

No, you still do it better.

molten speaker cable

When working with Mile' Nestorovic back in the late 80's he obtained some silver tubes filled with Mercury, to be used as speaker cables. All bends were made within the bending springs provided and we sat down to listen to a comparison with the then typical polypropylene coated copper wire. The results were thin and sharp to the point of pain. Meaning that the rise time and subsequent sampling of rise time over the period of change, done by the massively parallel processor we call brain, was not as our brains were expecting, from just previous experience with the copper conductor. We tried many gambits to slow the speaker response back to the point where it matched our expectations and failed miserably. Mile' did contemplate building one of his massive feedback amplifiers, meaning many many points of feed back injection through individually designed tank circuits, but sent the tubes back to France instead. This after we laboriously straightened them out again.

I don't draw any conclusions from this, other than thoughts about expense and the horrific possibility of cracking the wall of the silver tubes.

True enough, you have a point. Funny thing is, he can actually sing in a pure, clear voice. He just chooses not to.

Cheap shots at a musician,singer/songwriter who has created original music for about 50 years. How many songs have you creative giants written in that time, or sold out concerts?

Here are the results: the best description that I can think of is what I read others to say from conducting similar tests (actually try and heard them), that the main difference is not what is added, but what is missing: a subtle veil that permeated the entire performance from the lowest lows to the highest highs is no longer there. I didn't know it was there to begin with, and all of the sudden, once lifted, everything became more focused and shinier, but not in a glittery way. The sound is more relaxed. Gone are the last vestiges of grain, especially on the strings and wind sections. Everything sounds more "refined" and true. The bass is more controlled and I can hear more of the impact or "initial punch" on the drums. The mid-range is sweeter, and the highs in the crescendo passages even at loud volume, retain their body an composure, instead of being somewhat strident and glittery. Each instrument section is yet more into focus and more defined its placement. To be fair, I did not notice any enlargement of the sound stage, as it remained the same. Again, I credit the ANs as well for being true to the signal received and revealing the changes.

Where do you start with this? If I wasn't refined, I might be tempted to describe it as a pile of nonsensical, cr@p, however, as my manners are intact, I'll just question the validity of an A/B comparison that is clearly not.

What needs to be considered is the population of the spin density functionals, at least in the Green's function sense. We understand this to be analogous to the net polarization of plasma waves, which the audiophile can think of as being qualitatively similar to the propagation of musical signals through wires. At least in a conventional sense- the real understanding comes when one can discard the linear, reductionist approach and visualize something like a confined quantum foam. The "bubbles" in this foam add an uncorrelated noise which follows the signal. We can instantly recognize when this effect, which is sometimes laughingly referred to as the Umbrella Effect, is removed, allowing the energy to flow unobstructed by these quasi-statistical fluctuations.

Be very careful with this stuff, the aliens who kidnapped fas42 will be very keen to get hold of this technology so their plans of galactic domination will come sooner than they had hoped. (Please don't ask fas what they did to him? It is a very long and messy story, involving "probes", if you get my drift?)
