XLR wires carry differential signals. It will not matter that much if you coil the wire. Especially only 3m long. You will not even hear the difference one way or another.
Coiling XLRs.... yes or no?
I purchased some xlr’s that i was fond of a few months back. Shunyata sigmas
I was able to get them for a great price but unfortunetly they are 3m. I figured it was fine as it gives me flexibility in the future (such as going monoblocks), but for now my lumin x1 sits on a rack directly above my diablo 300 amp. Honestly with how close they are i could get away with 0.5m
So i have them susupended in the air but coiled. I’m reading that this is a big no-no but most of the stuff i have read is related to speaker cables.
what should i do in this situation? Is it so bad that I should consider selling my interconnects for shorter ones?
