Al, thanks for the response as usual it is extremely helpful.
I started my trial an error testing last night with two pairs of cables i had lying around. The pair i am currently using (18awg 3ft long, with each wire indipendent from the other)and an old pair i made (12awg, 8 ft lg, solid core wire with both wires snugly bound in a tech flex sleeve)
Based on a calculator i found online for capicitance and inductance capacitance calculator and based the geometries here are the relative readings
18awg: higher resistance, lower inductance, much lower capacitance (each wire, signal and return, is far from the the other)
Listening results are that 12awg presents a vailed sound with more pronounced but slightly muddier bass. The 18 awg is much more enjoyable.
