Is a Copper Conductor Directional?

In summary, the proponents of directional cables argue that there is a difference in electrical conductivity between the positive and negative current flow in the conductor, which can be heard as a difference in sound quality. There is no scientific evidence to support this claim, and the alleged mechanism of directionality is unknown.

Well, the legal aspect is interesting too. Is it fraud to exhaust the superstition of people to ones advantage? As I said, it's an interesting question, but off topic in a physics forum ;-).

99.999% of the electrical engineering content you find in audiophile sites is BS. It is a community composed of people that think they should pay for Rhodium plated connectors.
Most of us will settle for Gold. :wink:
