I wrote that the first reflection will arrive 12 nsec after the original signal. This is not quite right. While it is true that the first reflection will arrive 12 nsec after the original signal is *transmitted*, it will arrive only 8 nsec after the original signal *arrives* at the receiver.
This secondary signal will then happen at almost the perfect time to disrupt the signal from most digital audio sources. One is much better off to use at least a 5 meter or longer cable to avoid these sorts of problems altogether.
