Speaker wire lenghts
Recently purchased a set of Focal KP100 and I'm in the middle of finishing up the wiring for the crossovers.
My question is this:
The crossovers are located closer to the right side of KP100 and the input wires are exactly the same length from the amp to the crossover. When I go to run the tweeter and mid wires, the left side with be almost 4-5ft longer the right side.
Will this affect the balance from both the Left & Right KP100's ?? or should I make both sides equal and coil the remaining slack on the right side to keep it balanced?
Thanks

Is there a difference? sure you can measure a difference with meters and other equipment, but it's so small that you absolutely will never hear a difference. We're talking light speed conducting velocity in a distance of 4-5 feet....and miniscule resistance differences. Nobody's ear on this planet will be able to hear a difference!
