RE: Maxing stock chokes and DHT filament transformers

You are not thinking very clearly about audio design and the transfer of energy through a system.

An inch of bad wire can ruin the musical experience.

Lets say we change the wire on my amp's 10 Ohm DCR L1 choke from 12 AWG silver content to 26 AWG silver content. Do you think bass, dynamic contrasting will change any, or stay the same ?

Lets say we build two amps, one with B+ and grounds wired with 12 AWG, silver content, and the other with 26 AWG silver content. Think they will play the musical experience the same and as well as each other?

How about we do that for the speaker wires, between amp and crossover, or the wiring between the crossover and drivers??

This is almost 2015, does wire type and size matter in audio and audio design ??
