Interesting.
Now I dont' propose to know the first thing about capacitance or permittivity in relationship to the dielectric. But I've been using Audio Tekne Litz speaker cables for over 10 years now and have owned or auditioned both solid core and other Litz cables costing upwards of $8500 a pair off and on throughout that time period and the Teknes remain my most musical speaker cables yet. And they really came into their own after having them cryo-treated via the full immersion method.
As for the potential for the Litz wires vibrating more than a solid inside the dielectric, well, I suppose it's possible. But an Audio Tekne's girth is smaller than a No. 2 Pencil, the dielectric is a braided metal type that seems to be woven quite taut around the internal wires.
But even if the Teknes happen to vibrate more than some, if they still remain more detailed, pristine, smoother, and overall more musical than some solid core and some Litz types, what difference does it make?
Then again, all cabling vibrates to one degree or another when a current is passing through them.
