Isn’t this only after a crossover? Otherwise, both cables out of the amp would be carrying the same signal.
They wouldn't be conducting the same current.

Links please?
Not sure what you mean.They wouldn't be conducting the same current.
I'd say first thing is to learn how they work, which is probably involved more than it sounds and will likely take a while.How do you get to determine whether these things are worth it without spending a fortune trialling them?
Does the LPF on the woofer terminal and HPF on the tweeter terminals have any effect on the speaker cable it’s connected to? Otherwise the speaker cables to both terminals are carrying identical feeds, as they are connected to the same amplifier terminal.
Right, so these benefits only appear after the filters, right? So we are talking separation of frequencies for a few inches of internal wiring, as the high frequency content is already distorted as AQ claims for the entire length of the speaker cable used (as the speaker cables carry the full bandwidth signal), and similarly-so for the low frequencies.The low pass to the woofer will not pass high frequency currents.
The high pass to the tweeter will not pass low frequency currents.
That's how the filters do their job.
Therefore, different currents on the two sets of cable, though you could measure (almost) exactly the same voltages.

That is most likely age related due to outgassing, UV exposure (if not underground), or chemical deterioration. It is not because they are working (unless operating at elevated temps).Its interesting but as far as a power systems engineer friend told me, they do replace some industrial high power cables ( in the kilovolt and kilowatt usage range) on a scheduled basis (he didn't mention how often but probably in terms of years) due to the dangers of fires from arching and insulation deterioration.

Hi Sal,
Are you denying what I described? LOL! You’re kidding, right? So, it is okay if I ask you questions? I assure you the questions are relevant on a science based site. My questions have to do with your reasoning and epistemology.
For example, if you allow for unfalsifiable, supernatural explanations (i.e., magic) in your reasoning in certain areas, then you have to accept such explanations in regards to other beliefs/claims in order to remain consistent in your epistemology.
If I were to assert that various audiophile claims are explained by unfalsifiable, undetectable audio fairies, what possible objection could you have? I’ve just provided a perfectly reasonable explanation, which is based on your accepted epistemology.
Are you interested in projecting; or, actually advocating for science, reason, skepticism?

Nothing against you personally, you seem like a nice guy. Just questioning your reasoning and motives.
The swarm cometh, I suspect.
How about this breakthrough technology? The RCA cable is just 390€ - too cheap to be good?

SPINX products
Spintronics is one of the most interesting field of physics at the time.
All SpinX Cables are based on our SpinX Technology® which manipulates electron functions with the help of electric and magnetic fields. The technology is based on controlling the electron spin. The spin current is a globally known phenomenon which is studied with the objective of developing a quantum computer.
Their patent http://www.freepatentsonline.com/EP2603919.html
The company has been running on grants for about five years now, the audio RCA- and power cables were released in 2017.
That’s not possible. For you or anyone else.But I'm exploring without initial bias
Wireless technology is not immune from this: witness the Audiophile Wireless Router....but at least the opportunity to make a lot of cash peddling snake oil cables will diminish as the audio cable market as a whole shrinks..
Adding additional audio grade is needed in order to provide exceptional sound on network audio over traditional router design.
Holy crap.
Usually all that means is that a component is rated for an extended temperature range of -55–125°C. I guess that's useful if you want to put a sound system in the sauna.I'm most impressed by the term "OCXO military spec" that appears on their site.
