RE: carbon fiber in teflon

..just goes to show that resistance is not, in fact, a particularly important factor in line level interconnects. The reason is of course that a typical line level source has an output impedance usually from several tens of ohms to several hundred ohms.

This basically means it can be viewed as a voltage source with a series resistor (of the same value as the output impedance). So a little bit more resistance from an interconnect makes no difference.

Duster however is correct when he says you need a non-solder termination method. But from his pessimistic comment I suspect he's not tried either this experiment or any other CF interconnects.

Given how cheap the cost is, I'd say go for it. You might be surprised.
