"Each CEntrance Reserve Series cable has 14 separate conductors, shaped for optimal sonic reproduction. Bass frequencies travel in a solid central 12 AWG core conductor, which is surrounded by six stranded cores. These outside conductors carry the mid and high frequencies, resulting in solid imaging, enhanced sound staging, and true signal clarity. "
How can a passive piece of cable differentiate between bass/mid and high frequencies? I may be wrong, but isn't the entire analog electrical passed through the cable when connected?

saaltonenThere is a long discussion here about skin effect. Scroll down to read more. Skin effect shows up with higher currents. If you play quiet music, you don't need this cable.

CEntranceSo why not just use a thicker cable? Even if this is a litz wire to mitigate the skin effect, you can get the same net result (lower resistance) just using a thicker cable

theroflcopterShort answer: materials properties. Yes, you can use a thicker wire and some people have even suggested using coat hanger wire (it's an old joke.) But jokes aside, better materials do deliver better results. Again, we are talking about differences which will be more obvious with good equipment.

CEntranceFirst it's skin effect, now it's "materials properties". I'm trying really hard to give you the benefit of the doubt, but this is just buzzword soup. Where's the data? I don't need the trade secrets or proprietary details about your cable, just show me how it is better.

CEntranceWhy don't you just show us the difference using FFT from an oscilloscope. Please include an FFT of a coat hanger.
