Long distance from amp to speakers

My situation(i.e.,my wife's strong preference) is to have my amp, preamp, etc. at one end of the living room and the speakers at the other.
I know this is NOT recommended, but I don't have a choice. We're talking about a distance of 30 - 35 feet. The amp is an Ayre 5xe; the speakers are Vandersteen 2ce's. For years I've been using plain Monster cable (nothing special)bi-wired but it occurred to me that I should look for alternatives, having just upgraded the amp and preamp. I would be grateful for any thoughts about lessening the degradation of the sound with long speaker cords.
Thank you

I have some cables 35ft long from signal cable They use 10gage wire and sound pretty nice. I think the 10 gage wire is why they sound so good. I have sense moved my room around and am not using them anymore if you would like to buy them let me know.

I paid 281.00 for the 35ft signalcable cables they are 10gage wire and very nice construction. I would recommend them to anyone that needs long cables at a price that won't break the bank.
