RE: Maxing stock chokes and DHT filament transformers

"You are not thinking very clearly about audio design and the transfer of energy through a system.
An inch of bad wire can ruin the musical experience.
Lets say we change the wire on my amp's 10 Ohm DCR L1 choke from 12 AWG silver content to 26 AWG silver content. Do you think bass, dynamic contrasting will change any, or stay the same ?"

You are, as usual, evading the point. You maintain that you have beefed up the external leads from the choke because "an inch of bad wire can ruin the musical experience." But the choke itself contains many many yards of equally "bad wire." Why isn't that huge length of bad wire completely obliterating the musical experience? What is so special about the inch or two outside the choke that you can get your hands on?
