Speaker length vs. I/C length


I've read that it is better to have longer I/C's vs. longer speaker cables. Is this true? Speakers have a higher level signal, wouldn't this be better for a longer wire? My greatest distance will only be about 6-8 feet.
Thanks,

I have always thought the rule was longer speaker cables. Then I read some things by Jon Risch. Don't know what to believe.

The reason for the inquiry was because I want to move my mono blocks to some custom made speaker stands which will hold the amps under them. when I read it is better to have longer I/C's I thought this was right up my ally.

Thank you for you help,

Since I am only working with 6 feet or so I think I will use what works for the configuration I choose to set up.

Interesting story Subaruguru, I bet you had your fingers crossed hooking up for the first time.

Sean, thanks for the searches. I read enough of the JR stuff to give me a head ache. he he

Enjoy the music,
