Acoustat Monitor 4 speakers aren't hardwired to their servo amps but the stock speaker wire is only inches in length. i know people who modify these speakers and they say no cable they've ever tried to replace the stock cable with ever amounted to better sound. i assume it's due to the short length. so i wonder, if hardwiring isn't something one would want to do for the sake of being able to change gear, how about forgetting the looks of a well placed setup and constructing the system to use virtually only inches of cabling? anyone know if this is worth investigating?
Hardwiring?
Has anyone hardwired their components from source to speakers doing away with separate cables? Seems to me that the mechanical connection between jacks and plugs could be more of a source of problems than all the talk found in the reams of paper and over the excessive bandwidth given to the conductor material, cable configuration and dielectric combined. Would this not be a way of simplifying the signal path? I guess an integrated amp gives one a leg up in that department.
