Those that prostitute engineering are not engineers.,.they are wh@$se. LolI knew a lot of engineers were undercover hookers! How else do they afford all those Corvettes and such? LOL

You don't say! We all know that an amp or receiver is a much harder load for the residential pole transformer. Those pole transformers just can't handle serious bass slam. They pop like popcorn from what my audiophile friends tell me. Have to have the bigger pole transformers (they have upsized versions) and the extra thick wire from there to the house panel, then step down the wire size to 8ga to the wall outlet which is then necked down to the outlet screws. Then it finally goes into the P-12 Regenerator! Now that is true audiophile wizardry right there.....A car charger or induction cooker is not the same as an amplifier. At least not for most people.
Their base was 0.775 V / 20 V so ~28 dB sounds right.
They should have measured the 60 Hz power, not amplified noise, lol
Notice anything strange about this one?
Conductor area?
Since R (~1/Area) the larger area 0.5 vs 0.2 gives:
~ 0.5/0.2 ~ 2.5 x the R
At 10 kHz ~ 40 vs 90, ~ 2.5x
But obviously L is at play too.

We started in the street. The 300A 4-core cable was about $40/m and puts any audiophile cable to shame. No fancy braiding though and it didn't come in a fancy box. Not recommended for tonearms. And to answer your question, we did not rewire the National Grid! The good news it's copper, not aluminium that used to be used some places.
. I have much longer runs to my AV and modem, for which I used Belden 19364.
But did you replace the wiring from your house to the substation? Did you replace the substation transformers with those wound with a high-end-approved, 99.99999999% OFC, cryogenically treated, crystal-aligned cable? Until you do all that, and also replace all the cables coming into the substation, you're not getting the best possible sound from your system, believe me!
Ok, this is going too far for what it is, but I'll try to clarify what I meant.Obviously
We don't know if one is always above the other. They may have:
Taken measurements differently
Different days
Taken more than 1 and picked the one that favored them
Music at the same level
Voltage to amp was the same
The variation is random and likely within the margin of error at that low of a level.
It is a contrived measurement, extracted from a music signal.
That is all we know. Nothing else, only what they want us to see. You assume it is done identically under controlled lab conditions.Ok, this is going too far for what it is, but I'll try to clarify what I meant.
This is the plot.

QED's people say it's the output of an amplifier. They don't say which, they don't say anything else. This plot can be the result of many things, including being drawn by hand, who knows. But what it can't be is one random outcome of two identical distributions.
Some formalism. Usually the noise is modeled as a normal distribution with 0 expected value added to the underlying distribution or signal, to each point. This is what is called a random noise model, like in regression for instance. Furthermore, the noise of each point is independent from the others and usually it's also homoskedastic, meaning that the variance of each point is the same, although in some situations it may be convenient to add some variability on the variance. This models predicts quite well the typical situation in which we see tiny ups and downs everywhere that don't go too far in any case.
Given this setup, and if we assume that the underlying distribution of the data is the same, which is the same as saying there were measuring the same device in the same conditions, the outcome depicted in the plot, with one of the curves always above the other, is extremely improbable, it can't happen in practice.
In summary, this plot may the the result of anything we can imagine, but not a random outcome of two identical measurements where the only thing that differentiate them is an independent random noise. The differences shown are not compatible with any randomness. To be that different, the underlying distributions, if we keep modeling this as a probability problem, must be different: different gain, different set up, different amplifier, different whatever.
Use it from the consumer unit instead of standard 3-core.Not understanding. You made your own power cords? Extension cords? .... not clear.
They said impedance in the text.Well technically the graph says resistance, so that can only include changes in skin resistance .... though they probably mean impedance. However, I have no clue why I would want low impedance at high frequencies between line and neutral. Why do I want a big conduit for EMI? Perhaps low Neutral/GND impedance could have impact. Line/Neutral, nope.
You assume it is done identically under controlled lab conditions.

Each signal is random.The peakiness shows up in the same places in both waveforms--doesn't look completely independently random to me.
He said identical distributions.I wonder where you got that from? In fact, quite the opposite was stated:
They are dupes because the short ones go into First Run Copper cables and are regarded as the Premier Cru Superieur of copper grains and thus they are able to charge VASTLY higher amounts to only the mostI would really like a link to a video showing the manufacturing process by which you select longer copper grains. And what do you do with the short ones? Just throw them away or do they get, like, donated to charity?
It happens all the time when I measure equipment and I vary for example, grounding. Sometimes this happens with which USB port I use to measure a DAC for example. Noise floor simply jumps up or down. In these situations, I don't use the setup for comparisons like cables. You have to first find a repeatable, stable platform and then vary one element, i.e., the cable.Given this setup, and if we assume that the underlying distribution of the data is the same, which is the same as saying there were measuring the same device in the same conditions, the outcome depicted in the plot, with one of the curves always above the other, is extremely improbable, it can't happen in practice.
He said identical distributions.
Same sample or method.
But we don't know that. No FFT
Yes like the "watch" scene in Pulp Fiction, except it's a cable... ouch.That's why once you buy that power cord you should take good care of it and then pass it on from generation to generation.
