It was based upon some thick twin co-axial with

the screen of the left wire to the inner of the right
wire, and the inner of the left wire to the screen
of the right wire.
What exactly did he imagine this achieved ?
A way to separate fools from money.
He made them initially for his own use.

I have no idea. It seems, like Eiron said, that this
is nothing new, but like most things, gas been tried
before. I understand thereare also companies in
Italy who make speaker cable exactly in this way.

Sorry. Early morning typo (yet again) for "gas" read

It's a very old idea and still as pointless as ever
unless the point is to fleece audiophools.
Yes. I had a feeling he had not invented something
new. But he certainly does seem to have found
a market niche.
Some of us have these ethics thingies that keep us from perpetrating
scams like that.
Come on Arny. Don't come over all sanctimonious on us.
If someone offered you USD100 an hr for making up cables,
you would not be able to get you fat little pensioners' legs under
the bench fast enough! And you know it:-)
I've turned down more lucrative deals on the same grounds.
Yes, yes. Arny. Of *course* you have:-))

But why ?
Screened cable is irrelevent to such a connection.

USD, Aust.D, Can.D or even HKD it is *STILL* more than

It is not clear to me if he has 'invented' anything, or why the arrangement
would be of any interest or relevance - apart perhaps to those who have an
interest in knotwork or embroidery. :-)

So who does electronic assembly?
Certainly, not I!
