can u cut longer interconnects and reterminate?

The first meter is always going to be much more expensive because they contain the connectors. Just to give you an example, a quad set of WBT Nextgen RCA plug costs anything between $160 to 300!

1 Meter of High Fidelity CT-1 Ultimate IC is $4900 and 2 Meters is $5800. So the RCA plugs are ~$3900??

You always get a lower per unit cost if buying bulk. COSTCO ... higher quantity at lower price but companies still makes a profit.

You can't buy bulk, return each item individually and request a refund for price of one item. I know some will disagree and call it "cheesy".

Most companies do make the first increment of length much more expensive than any additional increments so that a two or three meter interconnect is not much more expensive than a one meter interconnect. The exceptions include companies, like Audionote which charge the same rate per meter for the wire, plus a fixed charge for the termination/rca or xlr plug. The fixed rate approach discourages people from buying an extra long interconnect in order to make several sets of interconnects. This was bad news for me because I really did need a 4 meter interconnect to run from my linestage to the amp, and Audionote Sogon is NOT cheap.

Hello Lall,I cut 1m Atlas titan interconnect into 2pieces and resoldered with mundorf solder Sn88.6% Cu1.8% Ag9.5% Au0.1% . So far such combination retained original sound of this interconnect

Hello Extravaganza, thanks for the info. Where did you buy this solder? A website link would be appreciated. Thanks.

I bought it from local shop solder which selling variuos electronic things, spare parts for audio and video . You can buy from ebay.de or any other electronic shop,which has e-shops and post worldwide if there is no such shops in your country.
