Could it be a misguided attempt at preventing the wires from interfering with each other?@grendel84 @bloor isn't that what shielded cable is for ( says the old bitch that has built about a million of them but doesn't know engineering) ?

Yes they want you to buy rocks meant to improve sound somehow???

@bloor Those are probably the worst network cables, from an electrical standpoint, I've ever seen. You loose all the advantages of twisted pair.

@bloor, I think that I'll just note that “wired” is an anagram of “weird” and leave it at that.
(Also of “I drew”, but I don't think that that's relevant.)
