Has anybody tried using single solid core cables?

Might be a dumb question (wouldn't be my first) but isn't solid core part of Paul
Speltz's story re his Anti-Cables? The virtue of solid core is not a new assertion,
I don't think...although it is often coupled with high purity, continuously cast,
"single crystal" claims as well.

Jea48, am I missing something here? The Indigo diagram at the link you
provided seems to show 8 strands of 17, 19, & 21 gauge solid copper conductors
per cable. Not a single solid conductor that the OP seemed to be interested in.
This might explain their description of Indigo as being stranded. I guess the less
desirable alternative would have been if the individual conductors themselves
had been stranded rather than solid. Have to say the number of cable offerings
from AudioQuest (current and archived) really has me scratching my head.
Could all those offerings really represent significant technical/sonic differences?

Hi Jea48

Sorry for the confusion (trying to be genderless by use of [their] rather than
[his]). I was not saying AQ claimed to use stranded wire. I was referring to the
OP's description: [My question before I ditch my multi-stranded Audioquest
Indigo cables....]. Multiple solid conductors vs multiple stranded conductors vs
single solid core and their equivalency or lack thereof appears to be the issue.

Geoff - FWIW - the AntiCable interconnects I have ARE directionally marked. Don't have speaker cables from them (yet). I'm guessing those would be marked as well.
