If the room isn't a bedroom, egress shouldn't be an issue. This assumes you're in the U.S. If the local governing body has the room classified as a bedroom (normally, the presence of a closet triggers this), but it isn't being used as a bedroom, personally, I wouldn't worry. JMO.
Budget 15' interconnect recommendation
After remodeling my basement I will need to get a 15 feet interconnect between my pre-map and power amp. I don't have a lot of budget for that, up to $300. I did some research here and other forums and seems like the following cables will fit in my budget. I am asking if some of you have owned them and provide some direct comparison. I like smooth mid, low mid, solid (not big/loud) bass, wide sound stage (don't like in your face forward sound), good dynamic range, airy high etc... Mostly listen to classical, vocal, jazz and soft rock. Both amps are SS.
