RE: whats Better dynamically better quality but smaller or large awg??

Posted by Stuben on March 26, 2017 at 06:25:29:
My day job involves the design of Automation systems that pass data back and forth. Sold core conductors have a higher band width than stranded. We like to use stranded because it is more robust to install and maintain so we are tempted to live with the lesser bandwidth when application will accept it.

That's my conductor story.

I think it is fun to play with conductor sizes to imagine I can hear the difference. When using extremes like large gauge or high strand count you theoretically effect the out come. At the end of the day, there's little value in whole exercise...way too many other variables to deal with. Build amps and learn.
