Is 35’ and 50’ to long for RCA sub cables?

I’ve been told to run XLR (mic) cable and the. Just use the two conductors for RCA. Would that help even though my subs don’t have XLR inputs?

Again is it noisy?

No. You’re still putting a single ended signal down the cable. In order for common mode rejection to work, you need two signal wires, each out of phase to the other. 

Use RCA cables and see what It sounds like. More than likely it will be more than good enough for a sub.

I am running a 75 foot subwoofer cable to the home theater subs and no issues. Make sure they are shielded. I bought mine from Blue Jean cables. Also, Mediabridge makes a decent shielded subwoofer cable and you can  those virtually next day service with Amazon Prime.
