Hello Coronadope,
We have been playing with Mil Spec M22759/11 lately, and I just layed in a supply of various AWGs to try out. If you would send me your address, I will be happy to send you some, just for me to find out what you hear !!
In the past two or three years, I have been routinely using DOUBLE 12 AWG
of this Mil Spec wire ( copper multi-stranded, silver plated, teflon jacket ) into high current areas of my amp. As it turns out, I was wrong to do so, so heavily. Although the double 12 AWG played with full dynamic contrasting, too much of this wire will lose the highs.
Under the advice of Mr. Dennis Fraker, I will be using less AWG in various spots, in all my future builds, in an effort to keep the lovely highs intact. I bought almost 2,000 feet of various smaller gauges of the Mil Spec wire, two weeks ago. It will be incorporated in my upcoming build of JJ 2A3-40 mono amps. Again, Coronadope, happy to send some to you, need an address.
I will let someone else comment on twisting and not twisting...these IS an audible difference I have been told, for several months now.
Best wishes,
Jeff Medwin
