Generally speaking, better to have longer interconnects and shorter speaker cables than vice versa. However in most cases, one may not hear any meaningful differences unless one runs a highly transparent system. For myself, the quality of the cable matters much more than the length, so when buying used I do not worry much about length.
Speaker Cable Length
I purchased a new amplifier, and due to size, I'm looking to move it outside of my current speakers to the right. I currently have Generation 6 Transparent Reference speaker cables that are 8 feet long. To make the move I would have to go to 15 feet of Generation 6 Transparent Reference cables. Would be interested in feedback on whether I will have any noticeable signal loss or deterioration in sound.

Thanks for the feedback everyone. @audphile1 I like your idea; however, with the amp size, then moving the center channel out more into the room, it really eats up a lot of real estate and then the center channel would almost be at the coffee table. Woots |
