In a earlier post within this thread, I made it known, I had not given too much attention to using a shortest length cable between SUT and Phon'.
As said in the earlier post, I use a cable of approx' 70cm (28 inches)
My memory got Jogged and I recollected a few things previously learnt.
The Capacitance for the Cable I use is 57pf per metre using Manufacturer Spec.
A friend, prior to my acquiring the 70cm Cable measured an identical cable with different RCA's in a 1.2mtr length at 90pf (Memory Jog Moment).
Maybe I was focused on creating a improved Capacitance art the Interface and purchased the 70cm length to attempt to achieve this.
Ihave detected minimal differences between the Two Cable lengths in use, but this attributed mainly to the Cable RCA's.
I would like to think that a 70cm Cable, even with a different RCA Plug is near optimised with the required 'pf' at the interface.
I hope this assists with adding a little extra support for the usage descriptions given with the owned and in use SUT's and the occasionally introduced Head Amp.
