"Dielectric quality could also be affected by lay direction and the Spatia subtly suggests to the user the direction of best subjective results under its braided covering. The unobtrusive blue marker goes to the amp end."

I think the blue marker must be very unobtrusive as for the life of me I can find no trace of said:)

The blue marker will be there, about 20cm from the 'amp' end.
There should also be 'V' markers at each end of the cables too

I just got a new pair of Spatia cables for my AV speakers and will be swapping out old cables tomorrow. I remember the blue marking at the amp being visible but subtle.

My new Spatia cables have a neat sleeve at the amp end with arrow pointing towards the speakers. Smart marking and very well made cables. Thank you John C, these are well worth waiting for.

It may seem a luxury but it is a treat after a year without holidays, cinemas, and many other things I took for granted and gladly spent money on. With the new cables I am hearing more detail in the soundtrack than with than the T* blue cables I had before. I expect the sound to improve further over the first few days of use.

Aha...I think I have the "band"...at work now, so cannot check: is the band at one end only of the cable,and if that is the case,should the arrowhead be directed towards the loudspeakers?

Yes, I mark the cable with the 'current' blue marker so I know which is the source end once the braid sleeve is in place. The arrow 'V' markers show the direction of the signal path, therefore blue marker on the Spatia cable should be at the amp end.
