I have posted a laymen's explanation of cable inductance at:
http://www.AudioAsylum.com/audio/cables/messages/17.htmlThis may help in understanding.
BTW, I was the one who came up with the original concept of cross-connecting a coaxial geometry, which Thorsten acknowledges in his article. There are several things going on here besides low inductance. The EM fields are symmetrical and balanced, the LCR parameters are symmetrical and balanced, and for it's (very low) inductance, the capacitance is not that high at all. Normally, when the inductance goes down, the capacitance goes up in a sort of see-saw balancing act, you don't get something for nothing. Yet in this design, the inductance goes way down without the capacitance rising throughthe roof.
For instance, one of the flat ribbon cables might have 50% less inductance, yet the C is 15 times that of the CC coax. ChrisVH's CAT5 recipe has about half the L of a CC coax, yet has over 10 times the C.
In terms of signal speed and amplifier stability, the CC coax geometry is hard to beat.
