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.


If it conducts, it barely conducts. Nearly all the current will flow
through the copper. So it may as well be an insulator.



** Just guesswork - not fact.

The conductivity of that graphite layer likely increases the capacitance per
meter plus add a continuous loss per metre.

It may well do just what the graph shows.



"In keeping with the fundamentals of HF-technology the impedance of
any conductor will rise dramatically in the bass region..."

is standard audio pseudo-scientific nonsense.



** Fraid it is perfectly correct.

The characteristic impedance of short transmission lines rises at low
frequencies - as shown in the graphs.



** What if there is a conductive layer used ?


See above.


** There is nothing but your ******** to see.



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



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


No, but the reference curves, the ones above the miracle cable, are
plain silly.

There's no way a dinky construction like this is going to have Zo of
10 ohms.



** Pure conjecture, based on your ignorance of how the cable operates.

Just as your comments on audio are based on ignorance.
