RE: Solid copper VS Stranded for Speaker wire

Thanks for the reply Waxxy,

I haven't actually take out an OHM meter yet to verify this but I understand the resistance of Stranded wire is less than that of Sold wire.
And we all know the definition of resistance in an electrical circuit is "the opposition of the flow of current." So it would seem to me that Stranded wire would present LESS of an opposition to the electrons moving through the cable, making it easier to travel through the cable.

This is pretty much what I am trying to reconcile. Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Alan
