Nice post. Well set out & easy to read. Could be a model for others (at
least in form).. 

The question is: Should we believe Bryston & Steve Nugent? It is nice
to talk about “rise time”; “fundamentals” and “reflections”. However,
can you or I verify the theory let alone the practice? 

A tour of some notable cable manufacturer's web-sites indicates that
the vast majority are silent about the >1.5m rule. Are they ignorant or
coy? More likely they have contrary opinions..

Bottom line: The jury is still out on this matter and there is reason
to be sceptical - not withstanding your excellent post which seems,
however, a little too one-sided for my taste. For me, your last line
carries the most weight for the following reason: In the absence of
credible testing/experiment, what can we do but share our own meagre
and limited experiences? Your BJC experience makes you want to line up
for "longer is better"; my experience makes me want to line up for "not
sure". Others here want to line up for “no difference”.
