Speaker cable vs. interconnect cable length

Thanks everyone for your advice. It looks like short speaker cables (4' to 8' in length) and long interconnects (18' to 25' in length) is the concensus here. I hope the sound is not affected by the long interconnect length. FYI, I will be running interconnects to three monoblock amps for the L/C/R front speakers.

Since the majority of the audiogoner's recommends long interconnects, I would like your recommendations on what I brands I should consider. Thanks...

Yup, lots of words with interconnect. But I thought there might be preferred interconnects for the lengths (18'-24') I had in mind. Thanks...
