Abstract

Wave signals transported through an electrical signal, (in their original analogue form or digitally encoded), are strongly influenced by the resonance properties of the environment they travel, both mechanically and electrically. During the electrical transfer of a dynamic signal, the electrons vibration and ultimately the current flow are dependent on the resonant properties of the geometrical internal structure of the conductive material they cross. The signal is acting like a wave and has a flow through the path that is given by the construction of the entire system, strongly influenced by the resonance that takes place at molecular level (molecular resonance), depending on the crystalline geometrical structure of the traveled environment. This structure's resonant properties supersedes the influence of the static electrical conductivity measured for a constant sine wave, like a 50Hz AC signal for example. As a consequence, measured conductivity becomes secondary to structural properties of the chosen electrical conductor if signal quality is a first priority. A conductor based on the above described properties will help achieve superior signal transmission and a better resulting quality. Conclusions: When transporting waves like recorded music by the means of an electrical signal, the resonant crystalline structure of the electrical conductor is a paramount importance. A metal that shows a constant compact symmetrical crystalline geometrical structure will favor the flow of the transmitted information, diminishing resonant influences from the environment and improving the precision of the resulting transported and processed wave.

Description

Introduction:

[0001] It is well known and debated among audiophiles, the fact that by using specially designed cables (defined as High Quality based on their construction and materials) in connecting electrically the components of an audio system, the quality of the reproduced musical sound waves is influenced significantly.

[0002] Similar facts apply to the video signals.

[0003] There is no complete explanation for that, based on scientifically known facts that define the transfer of electrical signals. Conductivity, resistivity and electro magnetical interferences should not have such a dramatic influence on the resulted reproduced sound. On top of that, the quality differences are not measurable by known methods, but clearly audible for the discerning human ear.

[0004] That is mostly due to the fact that a sound wave can be described as having 4 dimensions (3d shape plus time related elements included by the moment each element reaches destination point) and measurement techniques are using equipment for 2 or at most 3 axis.DESCRIPTION:

[0005] Wave signals transported through an electrical signal, (in their original analogue form or digitally encoded), are strongly influenced by the resonance properties of the environment they travel, both mechanically and electrically.

[0006] During the electrical transfer of a dynamic signal, the electrons vibration and ultimately the current flow are dependent on the resonant properties of the geometrical internal structure of the conductive material they cross.

[0007] The above described electrical signal has a behavior similar to a wave and consequently has a flow through the given path, that is influenced (determined) by the construction of the entire system. The transfer and processing of the electrically embedded wave is strongly influenced by the resonance that takes place at molecular level (molecular resonance), dependent on the crystalline geometrical structure of the traveled environment; This structure's resonant properties supersedes the influence of the linear electrical conductivity measured for a constant sine wave, like a 50Hz AC signal or linear DC for example. As a consequence, measured conductivity becomes secondary to crystalline structural properties of the chosen electrical conductor if signal quality (accuracy) is a first priority.

[0008] By using an electrical conductor chosen based on its resonant structural properties as opposed to the measured electrical conductivity given by resistivity measurements, any wave transported through conductive means will exit that conductor with enhanced properties due to the traveled positively resonant environment.

[0009] The application is very wide, comprising of any wave transported by the means of an electrical signal. That includes the power supply of such devices used for processing, decoding and / or amplifying the signal, that will draw from the mains a fluctuating current dependent on the shape of the processed signal.

[0010] A conductor based on the above described properties will help achieve superior signal transmission and a better resulting quality (precision) of the transmitted information.

[0011] Also, resonance properties of the room acoustics, system components mechanical build as well as other resonant structures influencing the music reproduction in the respective environment will have a diminished impact on the result, consisting of the reconstructed wave (music) perceived by the listenerRESEARCH:

[0012] Research was conducted using complex audio signals consisting of recorded music of various kinds transported through metallic conductors chosen based on their geometrical crystalline structure.

[0013] Differently organized crystalline structures were used consisting of various transition metals, including alloys. A spectacular improvement was noticed for the metals and alloys with simetrical and compact geometrical crystalline structure that could provide a stable and predictable resonant environment favoring an improved signal flow through the conductor.

[0014] Several sound signatures were observed, particular for each and every crystalline structure, influencing different elements of the audio spectrum, like speed, frequency range, control, noise floor, layering, soundstage etc. These influences were extrapolated to the reaction of room acoustics and other resonant structures from the same environment, including mechanical build of system's components.

[0015] The currently known metals used for electrical signal transmission, like Iron(Fe), Aluminum(Al), Copper(Cu), Silver(Ag), Gold(Au), Platinum(Pt) or alloys like Bronze had a moderate to bad influence compared to better organized structures, compact and symmetrical, with lesser conductivity properties, but showing more predictable and constant resonant behavior.

[0016] Equipment used for testing comprised of various electronics (power supply, CD Player, Streamer, Powered Switch, amplifier, DAC, speakers) from acclaimed manufacturers

[0017] Prototypes consisted of : 1. connecting cables constructed using the above described metallic conductors (replacing regular conductors) : a.Coaxial digital using BNC plugs b.AES / EBU digital using XLR plugs c.Single ended Analogue using RCA connectors d.Balanced Analogue using XLR connectors e.Speaker cables f.power cables g.Ethernet cables using ethernet connectors for the network 2. Modules built using 7 inch long conductors with diameters ranging from 2-4mm installed at the end point of each power cable, connected directly to the power inlet of each device. The diameter was chosen adapted to the power requirement of each component based on peak power consumption . The connecting plugs used were IEC The intended approach would be to implement these modules in the design of the above described components (electronics).

[0018] The tests were conducted in various environments, using different systems (equipment), and the results were analyzed by various subjects, both experienced and unexperienced, using visible and blind tests.

[0019] The conclusion was overwhelmingly positive, as all listeners, no exception, confirmed beyond any doubt, a significant increase in perceived quality.Conclusions:

[0020] When transporting waves like recorded music by the means of an electrical signal, the resonant crystalline structure of the electrical conductor is of paramount importance. A metal that shows a constant compact symmetrical crystalline geometrical structure will favor the flow of the transmitted information, diminishing resonant influences from the environment and improving the accuracy of the resulting transported and processed wave.
