"The wire in transformers, internal speaker wire, internal wiring of all electronics, the wire in capacitors, even hookup wire - they're all directional. "
The issue is, is that a perception only, or is there an actual alteration in the signal that effects / changes what the loudspeaker does. You would not or could not answer that question earlier.
If it mattered in the electrical domain, the folks who design / make transformers, maintain our electrical grid or work with RF signals where everything matters much more, would be aware of those special directional properties and design accordingly yet this appears to be exclusively a "high end hifi cable" only phenomena with no electrical alteration in the signal. The skeptic would say if it doesn't alter the signal going to the speaker, then the answer is elsewhere.
Exceptional claims require exceptional proof, you are the one making claims of an effect not observed in other areas of electrical engineering and so it would be natural to be skeptical.
