The caulk backer material makes for an awesome sounding IC, and certainly is more flexible. I'm not sold on the gore-tex, though- as it seems to compress a bit, yet does not have a whole lot of spring to keep the wires secure... The only reason I switched to the teflon tubing is for durability reasons, and the fact that it didn't muck up the sound vs. the caulk backer....
Follow Ups:
but for shielded wires. The shiled is spaced with a teflon tube which does make the cable stiff. I am not certain if the goretex will make a durable cable without a teflon tube. If i was going to make unshielded cables i would put the goretex core into a teflon heatshrink to make it a bit stiffer. But at over $2 a foot the additional cost of the teflon heathsrink will bump your core cost to $3 or more per foot.I think it is still worth the experiment.
