Run length


Room layout dictates the sub is on the opposite wall. Not ready to run a wire across the floor. It would be 26 feet.

To skip the floor run I would have to go up and down inside the wall. That would add another 18 feet for a total of 44 feet.  Too long?  Will be using plain old 14AWG cord.

An electrician will probably not want to run bare wire like that. Use whatever he recommends. Wire going to main speakers handling midrange and up is incredibly important. This is not that. Use whatever.
No problem. Ears just aren't that sensitive to such low bass as you're talking with a sub. For example, just that ordinary wire alone would be crap and you'd hear it as crap even at just 5ft. But with subs you can get away with cheap wire just fine.
