LOL.

I usually drink green tea with very little caffeine but was in a bind and bought some Chai tea with more caf. Well I found myself "needing" that chai so I stopped doing it.

I'll admit that I have a different take on the dc resistance thing. I know it is textbook to use big fat wire, but those who try the thin stuff on mags typically stay with it, at least if it is magwire. And that is for 5-8ft runs.

The thing I cant get my head around is why some 12g wire would allow all kind of current to pass when after that wire is hundreds of ft of what looks like 28g aluminum wire or so. But then an inmate I forget who posted that using such thin wire turns the amp into a current source which might explain why thin magwire can sound so good on the mags, even though that theory (that thin wire makes an amp a current source) makes little sense to me.

All I know is that I ditched my Kimber 4tc for some thin thin wire and never looked back.
