And if the enamel wire can be tinned with a hot soldering iron, then
its fragile enamel,


** That is complete ********.

Anyone who tries soldering enamelled wire without first removing the
enamel by other means is a complete pratt.

** ROTFLMAO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YOU are a 100%, total, know nothing ****ing MORON !!

Go look up: " self fluxing polyurethane wire "' sometime.

Designed to be tinned by solder pot dipping or the use of a hot soldering
iron.

You dumb as a dead dog POSTURING POMMY ASS !!!!!!

But the poluruethane enamel wire isn't the best type of enamelled wire
to use
where you want something rugged, and prone to being trodden on, and
yanked and wracked around at terminals.

Most of the amplifier failures I get to repair are from shorted speaker
cables.

Feel free to use the polyurethane if YOU want, but I won't, OK.

As you said, the small coil of wire which is a choke of say 10uH
in series with the amp and speaker cables should solve capacitance
bothers.
But most ppl would add a resistance of say 10 ohms in parallel with the
choke to damp the
LC resonant circuit you'd get if a speaker cable with high C is shorted
at the speakers.

Many (but not all) SS amps have the L&R as a standard feature, and have
done for 40 years
after makers woke up about how easy it was to stuff a transistor amp
right up.
