In Reply to: 17 meter IC to Amps - Need "Budget" Recommendations posted by mitch s. on February 9, 2007 at 20:18:46:
Which Joule preamp do you have? The reason I ask is that 17 meters of IC is likely to have a significant amount of capacitance which could potentially roll off the high frequencies. A typical cable will have 100 to 250 pf/meter, which calculates to 1700 to 4250 pf total. That's quite a lot of capacitance, requiring a good amount of current drive and your preamp may or may not be up to it. The standard IHF "stress" load for testing preamps is only 1000 pf. If you want to get that long an interconnect you need to look for a low capacitance cable to minimize problems - unfortunately many cable manufacturers do not publish this information so you may need to ask them directly.
