I don't have time to go point for point here. What you need to learn is one INCH of bad wire, in the wrong place, can easily ruin the musical experience !!!
I screwed myself for three years and three amp builds with using that ACME ( ? ) wire as an AC cord ONLY only, it sounds harsh and hashy, ugh.
How do you think I felt when I learned how bad that wire was ?? I had to eat humble pie, built three amps using it, never heard their potential, but I learned from my error.
You wanna dust your errors off into the corner and forget it or excuse it.... minimize it - HA !!
An INCH Grant, an INCH.
That is the truth.

The perfect excuse to mask poor design 'you had an inch of wire in the wrong place'. It also conveniently negates any possible comeback from the builder.
Face reality Jeff - if an inch of wire can totally make or break an amp, the design is inherently unstable and fundamentaly flawed. Certainly not one a prudent individual would implement or recommend (let alone spend $15k on).
"What you need to learn is one INCH of bad wire, in the wrong place, can easily ruin the musical experience !!! "
Just imagine how many inches of "bad" wire must have been used in the entire chain of amplification and processing between the microphones in the recording studio and the output from the home CD player or record deck. Not to mention quite a few coupling capacitors that most certainly will not have been "boutique" varieties. And power supplies built using unmutilated transformers. And huge amounts of negative feedback along the path too.
How can you seriously imagine after all those stages of unspeakable degradations to the signal that one inch of wire carrying low-level signals in the home audio amplifier is going to make a critical difference?
