[QUOTE="Ampdog, post: 70281, member: 144"] Hi Placebo, Your question regarding the splicing of loudspeaker wires: That will make no difference to the sound. I would agree with Hi-Phibian; forget about boutique cables and get large (conductor) diameter twin-flex - I would say some 2mm. You can calculate that the resistance of your required 15m is not more than 0,8 ohm - if the supplier has the resistance/1000ft say. Otherwise one can look it up. Regarding inductance-capacitance, you are nowhere near values that might make a noticable difference. (I was given to understand that some high NFB semiconductor amplifiers might tend to oscillate because of the lead capacitance. For myself I cannot figure that any half-decent amplifier will be upset by that.) [/QUOTE]
