Speaker Cable Too Short What to do?

Greetings, I just bought a pair of expensive mit cables but one of them does not quite reach my amp by a foot. What an idiot I am!!!!
I am playing around with the furniture to try to make things work, but is there anything else I can do? Can I use an mit jumper to extend the short cable? Will that degrade the sound? Does it matter that one speaker cable will be longer than the other?

Sorry to hear this but do not splice. Perhaps you can exchange them for a longer pair. Contact MIT if the dealer won't budge. Good luck.

The solution is obvious, buy a second system to fit the cables you have, and longer cables to fit the system you have. Now, wasn't that easy!

You did not mention where you got the cables. Perhaps the store has a customer that needs what you have, or MIT has some show samples or demo's they would trade you for minimal bucks.

Certainly worth asking about, I would not splice or join an MIT cable in any case.

Your first mistake was MIT - sell - the spirit god of high end is trying to tell you something.
