Why is high capacitance good?


Hello- I was looking into Cardas speaker cables, and couldn't help to notice as you go up the line---the dramatic increase in capacitance in his speaker cables (450/ft on the top of the line). I believe MIT and those guys crank up capacitance as well.

Is this why cables can sound "warm" (the Cardas mojo)? Most of the reading on the web says capacitance should be at a pretty moderate level.

Cheers,

To get rid of any negative effects of capacitance, inductance etc - Spectron Audio use "Remote Sense" speaker cables, see - http://spectronaudio.com/cables.htm.

Basically they take full advantage of their ultrafast feedback loop and include speaker cable into it - making amp/speaker the single amplification system.

Does anybody else use the same concept?

Thank you
