Power cord - 5 ft vs 10 ft ?


I've heard many things about the length of a power cord. What is the ideal length of a power cord to give it a chance to perform at its best before connecting to an amplifier?

@Cey - Apparently.  Last time Jumia asked similar questions all my posts with math were deleted.

Short as comfortable.  Using shielded will ensure you have the best noise blocking (both in and out). 

There is something to be said about using a longer shielded cable.  A little R and C can help reduce noise, but by a tiny amount.
