HOW SHORT IS TOO SHORT?


I'm replacing a tube stereo amp this week with a pair of Canary M350 monoblocks. I have a set of 8 foot Cerious Technologies liquid ceramic cables and wonder if 4 foot long would make that much of a difference. I can't (nor would I) cut the cables I have now but wonder if comparable cables being shorter would make much difference. I haven't heard the amps in my system yet and have no complaints with my cables.

polk432,

Well first off the cable needs to be long enough to make the connection. And perhaps you need to factor in excess for slack.
But, there should be no difference in audio sonics between the 8 foot vs. 4 foot cable length.
That being said Tube amps probably perform their best when used with the shortest cable possible.
