[QUOTE="audioholic, post: 8070637, member: 549629"] While finding an adapter that keeps you from having to trim away some strands is more ideal, trimming those strands for an inch or two of the wire does not limit over all resistance nearly as much as your water/pipe example implies. As someone explained eariler in this thread, wire resistance is defined as resistance per unit length multiplied by the over all length. So a couple inches of higher resistance (where you trim for a connector) wont alter the over all resistance by very much. [/QUOTE]
