Length- Speaker wire/interconnect ?s


Hi all. Is it better to sacrifice interconnect length or speaker wire length when setting up a system and why? Now I have 1m interconnects but am looking for good 20 ft biwire speaker cable. Would it be better to get longer interconnects and look for shorter cables or the other way around? Thanks again for all your responses... Baz

Long interconnects with short speaker wire is DEFINITELY the way to go. NO question about it. Of course, using a passive preamp, or running a source component straight into an amp throws a monkey wrench into this whole thing, and is NOT recommended. In those cases, the long speaker wire is the way to go.
