I am not saying I have all the answers but
I have found various gauge sizes and shapes
definitely changes sound as well as insulation.
Thinner gauges favor higher frequencies.
Thicker gauges favor lower freqencies.
I won't even get into flat/round/square wire.

But just because a violin and an amplifier both process sound in some fashion, that hardly means the same physical material laws apply.
Just as skin effect plays a major role on your CATV feed, that doesn't mean it's a factor in the performance of your audio interconnects.

All I would say is that with no apparent physical explanation that could plausibly account for the reported differences, and with no measurement data either, one would need to be extremely rigorous in conducting double-blind testing before being able to draw the conclusion that the effects were real. And certainly, before one could convince a skeptical outsider that the effects were real. "Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence."
