Un-equal length speaker cable advice??


Hi all,

I have always used equal length interconnects and speaker cables,...but a new home has an ideal set-up, because of a fireplace, of one speaker being 3 feet away from the power amp and the other being 10.

So....I either have a bundle of wire coiled up behind the close speaker or have unequal length cables.

Any advise is welcome..and any actual experience is much welcome.

Best, Jim

Depending on the aesthetic appeal (meaning allowed by your s.o. if any) you can instead of coiling lay the cable in a narrow half ellipse that leaves from behind the speaker to it's side and returns to it. You can "fix" the wire to the floor by a proper device i.e. blue tack or removable adhesive to follow the intended path. Got to get creative if a carpet is involved... Just an idea I've been using for some time with good results. Hope this helps!
