In Reply to: RE: What Works - How to Determine Speaker Direction when no Indicators? posted by Mick Wolfe on July 31, 2024 at 11:26:41
I know, but electricity, like my inability to play any musical instruments is an Achilles heel. That said I do have a multi-meter. I can probably find a tutorial on YouTube

If it makes you feel any better, I couldn't play a musical instrument to save my life either. That said, measuring resistance is MUCH easier. Yet simply listening to the cable to see if it's even worthy is the easiest of all. Just try the cable in different configurations referencing each one as to establish a baseline. My guess is that it's going to sound very similar no matter how its hooked up, but that's just a guess.
I noted in a previous response, access is contortionist difficult (especially for a 70+ yo, plus, short of marking each cable, there's no way to tell direction as a starting point
HiFi Tuning, German fuse manufacturer, employed a big technology company, a third party, to perform measurements for fuses, measured voltage drop across the fuse both directions, HIFI fuses and other high end fuses and stock fuses. Both cryo'd fuses and uncryo'd fuses.The differences in voltage drop, conductivity, were found to be *very small* but not zero. BUT the differences were always consistent with direction, the smaller resistance indicating correct direction. The HiFi report noted that the audible differences were much greater than small differences in resistance would indicate.

If you put AC across a fuse then the voltage drop will be the same either direction.
If you put DC across the fuse and measure a difference, one direction vs. the other, how does that tell you which direction is correct for AC.

Do you believe they really did that?

Can you prove they didn't? Of course you can't.

I didn't realize you were so big on conspiracies. That's not very scientific of you.
True science questions everything and demands concrete evidence.
Do you have any? I mean about anything you believe. Do you have any concrete evidence or just your opinion? (because you "heard" it)
I think you should watch this and then think about the full ramifications of it as it applies to audio and sonic impressions (and, by extension, sonic opinions (beliefs)).

I learned my lesson, never try to change the mind of someone who's overly skeptical, he made is mind up long before any evidence was offered. And he will ignore or dispute any evidence contrary to his belief. It's the old Brer Fox and Tar Baby routine.

Better stick to tried and true phony baloney.

Thank you. Still, don't you think it's worth the effort to measure resistance?
I never said that. Good luck with all of that, however.

Self fulfilling prophecy..
