So what I`m hearing is when I use 24 gauge pure copper speaker wire it appears there are more higher end harmonic frequencies.
When using 18 gauge pure copper speaker wire it appears those higher end harmonic frequencies are less but there are much more lower harmonic frequencies.
This is not a simple one time one song affair that brought me to this experience...
So what I stumbled across was using 24 gauge wire and 18 gauge wire both connected to the posts on the amp and speakers now it appears to me after much critical listening of a variety of only about 5 songs to ensure higher harmonic and lower harmonic frequencies are all brought to the equation is that all are present.
My suggestion is to look at it another way, instead of skin effect & more HF, it might be AWG 24 is thinner and may contribute to a little less LF. After switching to thicker AWG18, lower resistance per foot, better LF. It’s just another way of looking at it.
Typically for short runs, the difference would be too small to hear.
