Nordost is probably right on this matter. There design in cable probably won't make a difference in the unequal lenghts. There entry level cable might not sound as good as there high price spread. Find a dealer who will let you try before you buy. Good luck
Asymmetric Interconnect/Speaker Cable?
Bought Aleph 2 pair. Hardware on right side of room. Will run 2.5m equal interconnects with 2.5m + 7.5m unequel speaker cables, or vice versa. I know conventional wisdom suggests keeping the spkr lines short, but NORDOST insists that their cables work fine both longer AND unequal, and that I should keep the interconnects shorter and higher quality! They suggest 2.5m Red Dawn IC with 2.5 + 7.5m Blue Heaven SpkrCable. I'm lost...plus I hear cheaper Flatline is just as good. I'm powering Verity Audio Encores (89dB, 4.5-9.5 ohms). Thanks!
