"John Larkin"

Somewhat along these lines John?

No. They show a thin inner conductor with thick insulation.


** Try reading the text.

There is no "insulation"used.

The black layer is a carbon filled plastic = a conductor.


Impedance
goes as the log of D/d, where D is the diameter of the shield and d is
the diameter of the inner conductor. So to make D/d approach 1 (and
impedance approach zero) the insulation must be as thin as possible
(which adds capacitance, of course.)



** What if there is a conductive layer used ?

The impedance graphs and text on the cited web page are made-up lies.



** You have done tests on the stuff - right ??


But I suppose the wilder the lies,



** Err - like your ones here ??

Audio doesn't really matter anyhow.
