In Reply to: Solid copper VS Stranded for Speaker wire posted by alanj.martin@verizon.net on December 6, 2011 at 14:44:49:
skin effect which occurs in both stranded and solid wire can/could cause the difference in sound. As another poster pointed out, Audioquest has a whole white paper on cable theory and how all this is supposed to work. After having had many Audioquest and Kimber speaker cables that use few to many large solid conductors, I found a simple, inexpensive PCOCC stranded cable sounds infinitely better to my ears.
