RE: Wireworld Equinox 6 Interconnect Report

I was thinking more along the lines of it causing instability in an already poor match of components and thereby causing the driver component to distort. I did a search and the only examples I could find is when excessive would act as a low pass filter and would, as you say, make the treble sound dull because it would be rolling it off. I also would not expect a respected company like Wireworld to design a cable with that much capacitance. Another example would be a tube preamp that lacks a cascode follower stage, and because of this, has a high output impedance driving a long length of cable. But this to would also cause a high frequency roll off. There was mention of store-release properties of high capacitance cables, but I could not find anything concrete. From this, I conclude that is unlikely that capacitance could account for the differences heard in this cable by other inmates.
