Default KW-120-THX Cable

My friend has purchased the Klipsch THX speaker set which comes with 2x KW-120-THX subwoofers. The specialised cable for this subwoofer (and amplifier) is 6m long. For his installation we need a 10m cable (x2). Klipsch does not make a longer cable.
Any help or advise on getting a longer cable with the required plug ends? Our dealer is no help since he has our money and the sale is done! Thanks...

Trevor.......Your friend picked the wrong time to figure this problem out. This should have been noted at the beginning of the shopping spree. It is quite possible that Klipsch does not manufacture the subwoofer cable. It is probably a Chinese supplier making the cable to Klipsch specs and is likely the reason no custom lengths are available. If the connectors on the cable are removable, perhaps a custom length can be fabricated using bulk cable.

We were able to get one of the last sets made in the USA! Unfortunately the dealer told us that the cable was 10m and so we went ahead with the purchase. Now he doesn't want to know us. I have not seen those connector before so doubt I could get someone like Wire World to make up a cable. Klipsch themselves said no! I can probably take the connector apart and do it myself but I'd rather not.
