In this case I have found very interesting demo video by "you tube" and townshendaudio regarded checking speaker cable with an amplifier, 2 KHz sine wave and two channel scope:
YouTube - Townshend Audio Isolda Speaker Cable "geometry matters"
or
Cheap Viagra Online . #1 Approved Online Pharmacy. LOWEST PRICES, Fast delivery
(scoll down)
Is this a realistic way to find out the best cable type, especially for long distances ??
The understanding of spoken English is difficult for me, but for me it seems to be a mistake, to use a coiled cable reel instead of a uncoiled version, as shown by the ordinary (basic) type of cable.

THAT is now the funniest thing I've seen online today. Townshend needs better anti-virus software!
Hmm, only acceptable if you`re running single ended tubes onsupersensitive horns, if anything else you`ll loose a lot of dynamics.
With SS-amps serial resistance are the worst enemy, be in speakercables or passive filters. Wery underrated & misunderstood by most designers & other "experts"
I have one on my system that is aboutout 15 feet and the other one at about 30 feet and I need to turn my balance knob to the 10 oclock position to compensate for it. They are 12 guage install cable with 8' audioquest jumpers from the wall to the speakers.
Cable length matters...

No.
Speakers are a very complex load.
Realistic squarewave response comes from transmission line type wire sourced and loaded by pure resistances with no reactive or +j factors in there.
Better speaker cables are those without few thousand pF of capacitance between the conductors on long runs, which almost entirely rules out "audiophile" cables.
And IMO, 25' is not a long run. I've ran LONG runs in stage gear. 25' is insignificant.
Cheers!

Thank you for this informations.
You are right. For me the question is, why I don't see this only here, but not on Townshead's hompage.
Is it generally better to maim the URL ??
like the follow example:
"www_townshendaudio_net/index.php"
then such funny things can't happen
By the way - happy new year

I found this link interesting and use braided CAT 5e for my hidden (ceiling and walls) wire runs.
DIY audio cables
If you use the 6 wires braided as suggested, it is equivalent to about 10 AWG wire for cross-sectional area and have resistance of 0.008 Ohms per meter. For 10 meters of wire the added resistance is 0.157 ohms. No idea about capacitance or inductance.
