RE: Distortion measurements Solid core vs Multi strand

"You might get into trouble with the differences being too hard to measure if you limit the scope (no pun intended...) of the exercise.
IOW, it is easier to see the differences (and hear) them when the change is a bit more global- such as building an entire preamp or amp with a certain brand of resistor, rather than just one resistor changed in one spot."

Personally, I will stick with the tried and proven scientific method. If you want to test the assertion that multi-stranded wire creates more distortion than single-core wire, then do a clean experiment that simply measures one against the other. Don't introduce extraneous factors like running the signals through a loudspeaker and thereby introduce confounding factors associated with acoustic measurements.
