Shorter speaker cables would be my choice. Then again power cable length would have to fit into the equation.
Long interconnect or speaker cable
My room configuration requires that my rack is off to the side of my speakers. This means I need to run 20 feet of speaker cable (Wireworld) from my Mc mono blocks. This makes high end speaker cable cost prohibitive.
I was thinking I could move the amps next to the speakers, have short higher quality speaker cables, and then a long run of moderately priced XLR interconnects from my preamp.
So, all things being equal, what’s better for SQ, a long run of lesser XLRs or speaker cables?
