and good questions BTW. I would describe it as a double-helix. If you take two pos/neg pairs and twist the pos from pair with the neg from the other, and then weave the two outside legs back through in an over-under-under, under-over-over fashion you end up with the two pos and two negative in a twist but with overlapping strands.I actually should not talk about where I got the idea, but I will say that I am comfortable using it for my own work but could never take it into commercial production.
Musical yes.
Detailed—very yes.
There is much more detail than with any other cable I have used save the JPS. However, the sound is, as you say musical, with a velvety ease of presentation. There is a taughtness to the bass and an airy extension in the mids and highs that allows more extended decay than I have ever heard. There are layers and layers of notes in slow decay that just hand out there. The very small details that are revealed are not forward, but audible and in what sounds to be the proper priority.
I will do some more listening. Finish up the termination, and get the final changes made to my phono stage and attempt a proper evaluation.
If you do some searching for Litz braid and Litz weave you may be able to uncover the iformation, including research, that I borrowed for this little home-brew experiment.
