This concerns the Xtreme Signal HDB8X, although really "in general". I understand the need for precisely matched phase lines when connecting sections of an antenna, or 2 matching antennas together. That's easy. But when connecting 2 antennas (or halves) thru a splitter/combiner- is 1" a critical issue when the 2 cables are 3 ft., and 2' 11"? I suspect a yes to that, although I'd think a different factor involved, even IF unequal gain is still the end result. (crapshoot- capacitance, inductance? One of them "tances". Ha)
