I did exactly that: I demoed 10’ cables and bought 4’ versions. They both sounded the same to me (after break-in). However, several weeks had passed between the demo and listening to my new, broken-in cables, so YMMV.
1 meter speaker cables
My speaker cables are only 1m in length. I have two questions that I hope the collective experience of this community could help answer.
1. At 1m length do the differences that may be present at longer lengths of say 2.5m become less noticeable?
2. Has anyone demo’ed 1m speaker cables and if so, where?
Thanks in advance for your insights.
