Reterminating older MIT 750 CVT Speaker cable to a shorter length - Can this be done?

They look like normal thick cable but when you remove the ends (they have "resistors" imbedded near the splitters).
If I were to reterminate these to a shorter length, would this be possible and not cause much harm to its overall performances?

MIT is not able to help since this is a much older model and they will not provide any service.
Would like to make these 8 footer into a 4 footer pair. Thanks

Are they resistors, inductors, or capacitors?

If one could measure them, then it might be possible to add them to the cut off end.

Or just remove those resistors, as they should not help a lot. They would reduce the damping factor… which maybe be what they are accomplishing??

Is that 31 ohm in series?

Or with the capacitor in series between the +/- to roll the high end?
