Power cord length

@jeffstrick   You ask how power cords can have sound.  They cannot.  Unless someone here comes along and tells me how it all works.

@ghdprentice     I can only think they had a bad day at the factory when they made one of the cords.

Not power cord related, although it involves timing- why are the windings in inductors and voice coils never mentioned as causing timing errors then? There are relatively vast differences in wire lengths between even a common 4.7mH inductor, a woofer's voice coil and the few wraps in a tweeter voice coil in a two way speaker. I've never met a vendor mentioning the timing variances about this, although again relative to the speed of light or electricity it also wouldn't be much.

OCD

An old friend of mine-a very talented audio engineer-a guy who has been designing and building A-List tube and ss gear since the 1980’s-told me that without question, the most important specs for any power cord is that it be minimum 14AWG, and long enough to reach an AC outlet.

Seriously.

I have always heard that all cords, especially interconnects and speaker cables should be as short as possible with the exception of power cords that benefit from being longer. I wouldn't go crazy beyond a few meters though.
