In Reply to: A clue to an explanation. posted by Al Sekela on April 2, 2007 at 12:29:33:
Al,I think you made several very good points. I've been using homebrew, unshielded interconnects for years. When I first built them I thought they sounded better than anything else I'd tried except that the high end was a little "tizzy". It occurred to me that I may have made a fine, high Q antenna system, so I matched them. They had a Zo~300ohms so I built some end gadgets that had a build-out resistor for the source (~200ohms) and a 300ohm termination at the load end. That seemed to do the trick.
I was just trying get good sound so I didn't make any measurements, but anecdotally I think this supports your advice.
