RE: Are you be amenable to discussion?

The tradition is to ignore the static-fields
of a signal. Static and magnetic fields are
inter-dependent in signals and this inter-dependence
is especially significant in a audio signal.

Static fields are not 'supported' in a
LOW numbered-dielectric constant like:
DK of: 2.4 to 2.7 - as in TEFLON.
Permittivity in TEFLON is low, that is the insulation
will not allow static fields to penetrate into the
insulator. The static fields are then forced to
stay close to the surface of the conductor.

The 'distorted' fields interfere with the magnetic-electron
portion of the audio signal.

Fidelity of the signal is distorted - damaged.
Sibilance information is lowered - sound stage is
collapsed and leads to smearing.

Coax cables make poor inter-connects as compared to
wires with softer insulations or a higher DK number.

You can test this out for yourself - use coax compared to
a simple cheap soft insulated ZIP-cords
(white to clear - insulation.)
