1/2 Meter Interconnect Good Idea?

I have heard that in general a 1/2 meter IC will not sound as good as a 1 meter. Can anyone confirm? I am considering Audience.
Thanks

I don't know about the validity of the claim because I've never tested the theory. As far as I can tell this argument never applied to analog cables. I think Bigtee has it right. I would be very surprised if anyone could hear the difference between a 1/2m and 1m length of the same cable that was broken-in. If you only need a 1/2m length why not save the money?
