It's all clear to me now!!!   

"Electrical and magnetic interaction between strands in a conventional cable is the single greatest source of distortion, often causing a somewhat harsh, dirty and confused sound. Solid conductors are the most important ingredients enabling Gibraltarís very clear sound."

Confused sound!!!  My brain must be wired with stranded conductors!  and do I get this right, connect 36V to each ear, that will help bootstrap shield my head to shield the unwanted signals that the tin foil hat will miss?

Yes I'm ot but it just keeps getting better and better.....to pull it on track, it looks like a BC-779 with PS will be on hold for me at a yardsale this weekend
I do need another right?!?
