Does the length of cables really matter?

Hej

I've read that a digital cable should be at least 1,25 meters for best sound. And now I friend of mine said that power cables should be at least 2 meters otherwise they will affect the sound negativly.

Is this really true? 

And if so; what about analog interconnects?

Thought so too.

Yes, I've heard that to about digital cables. But then it's strange that the manufacturers make them shorter. Or...?

A while ago I bought a Furutech The Astoria-E power cable (1,5 m) and yes it had a positive impact on the sound.
