Solid core cannot carry the same current as the same diameter stranded cable.
You could even perform an experiment to see yourself.
The surface area of a stranded cable is much larger the the same diameter solid core.
A stranded cable with more smaller strands will carry more current then the same diameter stranded cable with fewer larger strands.
I think it get's muddy when we gain electrical knowledge from an audio site.
