Cable long question

I have been a question for a long time. That’s the shorter is better than longer to the interconnect cable for all the hifi equiment connected? It’s the 0.5m cable is better than 1m. Why the interconnect cable length are 1m ,1.2m,1.5m and so on. It’s just for convenience for interconnect.

Shorter is always better for both IC's and speaker cables, but my analytical study has the following result: See the Audio FAQ at:
http://www.empiricalaudio.com

The results indicate that speaker cables should never be shorter than IC's.

Kana813 - this is very system dependent and particularly linked to the quality of your IC's and speaker cables. The general rule in 90% of systems is that speaker cables should be longer for optimum results.
