Thought this crew would appreciate the video! My favorite part of the video is a pretty extreme example of smearing created in the first trans Atlantic wire that was laid down.

Great video.  I've tried to explain this to people and they have a hard time conceptualizing it.  This video lays it out very simply.  That simplicity is what the experts are complaining about, but I think we can ignore their concerns for the purposes of this vid.  I think this should have been posted in the Path of Least Resistance, maybe a repost there would be in order.

Yep, fluctuating current in a wire creates an electromagnetic field. The strength of the magnetic field around the wire is called "magnetic flux density". A lot of tweeks in audio are based on manipulating those electromagnetic fields either within the equipment, the cable or both. Current is what makes the loudspeaker move (not watts or anything else) so thats why its audible.
