Traditionally???!?

Wire is not directional unless components are added to it to make
to directional.

Surely it's only a matter of time before some company persuades it's
customers that there are cables optimized for predominently north-south
runs
and other cables designed for mostly east-west runs. Clearly one wouldn't
want to use the wrong cable going in the wrong direction. After all, the
planet's magnetic field, and, ummm, the rotation of the Earth, and the Van
Allen Belt. And stuff. Naturally those who want the best sound quality
in
their hi fi setups and "home studios" will want to use cables that not
only
are optimized for signal travel in one direction but are also in tune with
the planet's magnetic fields and so on. One would have to be a fool not
to
pay extra for that.


it's fung schway, dude!
