Can I cut a longer RCA run to two shorter ones?


I have a 5 meter pair of Virt.Dyn> revelation RCA cable- I moved my system so do not need the 5 meter- Can I cut it into 2-2.5 Meter cables and put new RCA plugs on them  thanks

flutters,

Virtual Dynamics used a form of damping in their cables.  In some instances, it was a form of aggregate that was inside a tube through which the wires passed.  You can go to YouTube to get an idea of some of what Rick did.  I know this because I too use a form of damping in my Ultra Fi cables, though I do not use an aggregate.

Thus, if you cut the cables you have in half, you must be able to deal with the damping otherwise you may well ruin the cables.
