Speaker cables if your amp isn't between your speakers


Hi, I'm hoping for some advice on upgrading my speaker cables. My amp (and the rest of my equipment) sits to one side of my speakers. This means one  speaker is about four feet from the amp, and the other is 10-12 feet. I'm thinking of upgrading my speaker cables and it seems I either need to buy a set of cables 10-12 feet long or buy cables that can be ordered to length.  Buying a matching pair will obviously cost more and will be less tidy. Ordering specific lengths seems to decrease the choice significantly (at least in Australia where I live). I'm interested in what others have done in this situation. Spend the extra and deal with the mess, or go custom. My speakers are Wilson Audio Duette series 1 and my amp is a Plinius integrated. My current cables are the base model anticables   Thanks in advance.

Hey @grannyring on your recommendation I've ordered some Duelund cable.  I went for the 12 AWG. Figured it's worth a try and I've got very little to lose. 
Good for you. Be sure to twist the positive and negative runs as you make up your cables. The twist should be about every 1.75- 2 inches or so. Use heat shrink on the ends to keep the cable twisted.

Carefully strip the ends without nicking any of the thin strands. Clean the stripped ends with isopropyl alcohol as there will be some dry oil residue on the surface....just a little. Since the wire is tinned no need for any connectors.

They will take some 100 hours to burn in and sound more relaxed and open.

I think your speakers are biwire. If so, rather than making jumpers simply strip enough of the cotton sleeve off to thread through both sets of posts in a continuous run.
The other option is to place a custom order with your local audio dealer. I got custom Audioquest cables ordered through my dealer.
