Adding an extra 1ft to premium speaker cables


I was given a pair of premium quality speaker cables but they’re about 1ft short on each side and there’s no way to change it. If I added an extra 1ft of cheaper cable would it defeat the purpose?

@rankaudio no ruffled feathers. We established a while ago that you had a hidden agenda. You acknowledge it and apologized.
 

I’m giving you my honest opinion 

the system in the video sounds thin, bright and sibilant. I’m familiar with that Malia track. It’s one of those demo tracks that will make any system sound good.
I don’t know what it sounds like in a real life but to me in that video it’s garbage.

I get it you don’t like my opinion. That’s fine. 
I don’t ridicule you for using the home depot speaker cables. Whatever floats your boat. 

Just like any other cable denier you continue to try and stir something up.

You can search the forums. There are dozens of discussions on this cables matter or don’t matter topic. No matter what explanation is being provided to you or what experiences are being shared, you won’t be able to get this thru your thick skull. So it’s a waste of time. Start a thread that actually brings value. This cables matter BS is worthless. 

Totally defeat the purpose it would change everythung that was improved that 1 ft 

destroys the purity of the upper ends wire purity, dielectric  shielding if Litz wire even more so  and the geometry of the wires build .

It very well may not make a difference, but because it's "rigged", you might always wonder "what if"...

Before you mess up a premium quality set of cables, buy some Amazon brand 12 gauge speaker wire. A lot of people can’t hear the difference.

My guess is that the extra set of cable connectors to join two different sets of cables might be a big cause of sound degradation even if both sets of cables were the same.
