Bass amp for a tri-amped system?

Any cable that is below around 150pf (picofarad) per foot is considered to be low capacitance. This is a specification that should be advertised with all cables bought on the packaging. A manfacturer worth his salt should be able to tell you what ... 
Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever?
