@bloor I know this is a joke, but I wonder how this would sound.
Not how good it would sound, but if it would impact the input sine wave. -

@bloor Audiophiles can be some of the most gullible people on the planet.

@nazokiyoubinbou @c64whiz @bloor Well, I was just thinking which stream you might cross when messing with a mains cable

@bloor “AI” enhanced cables bro.

@bloor that's *fascinating*. I can't stop looking at it.
What on *earth* were they trying to do here?

Here's the rest of that setup. Those are *mains power* cables — no bloody way that's legal.
The Reddit thread is fun, too.

@SomeVeganCheeseIsOk @bloor I don’t know but I assume they are trying to reduce induced currents in adjacent wires.
EDIT yeah I know twisted cables already solve that, I mean that’s the grift
But…these are power cables? I have no idea. Audiophiles might as well be from a different planet

@bloor Pretty sure that is a discombobulator.

@bloor I think I see what they're trying to do. By breaking the wires up and interweaving them, my guess is they're trying to get the magnetic fields to cancel. Maybe minimize the magnetic coupling between the power and signal lines?
I think any improvement is going to be really minor, but I get it.
I think you could do something similar by splitting power through multiple pairs with differing twist rates (similar to how CAT6 cable is built). But that wouldn't look as AWESOME as this!

@bloor you gotta un-twist those internal cables and let ’em breathe… 🤪
