Directionality of wire

Posted by Klaus on November 10, 2004 at 00:54:17:
Excerpt from 6moons' review of the Walker Audio phonstage :
"For example, all wire in the circuit is directional. This is accomplished by replacing a batch of wire in a known circuit and listening to it, then reversing the wire and re-listening. One way will sound better. This is the same wire used in medical surgeries connecting the brain and the ear."

Now what about the surgeon : does he check for directionality of the wire before using it ? If wire directionality were an issue I would think that it was of paramount importance when it comes to this kind of application.
