Yep! But it doesn't cut treble any more than a straight cable is the point we're making. :)
You guys have missed my attempts at humour twice now :(
I've not had coffee yet.

That treble thing has been mentioned for a long time. Do you think it's a matter of better material these days? Then again, I would've thought not... but...
Curly cables, when they're long cause treble loss. Cause they're long. So if you've got 50ft of cable running across the stage, it's not going to matter if it's curly or straight, you've got more signal loss. I think that this was a big part of it. Also, as you've mentioned, better materials and better understanding will have helped as well.

I'm going to assumed it's bottom related, reading it back. I should've been more on it.

When I replied, he pointed out that Music Planet didn't have a shop there and it must have been MusicWorks.

He is of course, perfectly correct.

I'm now choking on a huge slab of humble pie with dickhead fool for dessert. :oops:
This is what happens when the rest home lets its residents out into the community to go on shopping trips... :wink:

Nah, not JB's best work. Maybe there's room for a riff about wrapping the coils around a cock?

My cables would look more like the springs from your car than an old school phone cable!

Next time, you can try making one instead. Straight lead + rod + heat gun. You'll have to buy your own snakeskin boots tho

My new coily cable has arrived. Many thanks to Polar Bear who amazingly, still seems to be talking to me. I chose a red one so I never forget the burn. :rofl:

Danny, I have compared it to my straight cables: no difference. Nada. You might have a dud one.
