Speaker cable length with monoblock amps?


If you position a monoblock amp close to your speaker (say within a foot of the speaker.) Would the shortest length cable, say 2' be the way to go?

buy 2 short runs of zipcord - test that - blind - vs. something cheap from BlueJeans cable

take the winner and test it vs. various brands from one of the rental places (i.e buy & return)

on the other thread, I agree you want to listen to the Vidars
The idea that speaker cables have to be a certain minimum length strikes me as an audiophile myth too - it likely arises because people who do not understand physics have confused cables with extremely high freq. waveguides used in microwave, radar, etc.

just like 'skin effect' another red herring
