Interesting. Thanks for the detail Alan.I respect your position as a cable manufacturer and no doubt your success is due to your insights and philosophy. I've only come into this in the past few years and have no formal education in electronics and very little in physics.
To my ears, hence my thinking, the dielectric is more important than physical damping. Since the signal runs on on the outside of the conductor, the material nearest the surface of the conductor must have a significant influence - especially in its electrical properties. For this reason, I also think the surface of the conductor is of upmost importance as well (e.g., Oyaide plugs).
Physical damping does make a difference in my system, but that difference is so small it's tempting to attribute it to my mood rather than the cable!
Anyway, my $0.02, without actually trying fiberglass cloth. I'll definitely give it a whirl - there are many online resources that offer Teflon-impregnated fiberglass weaves - and see how that sounds.
Cheers & regards for a happy holiday.
