Rx8man,Glad they made it to you safe and sound. They are extremely musical aren't they, I agree whole heartdly(sp?). Even though they have been on the cooker if you give them a little time you will notice that they will still open up more as well ... 
Is there a optimum lenght for power cables?
I'm a cable mfg. I would have to agree with you guys. I've tried and I'll be darned if I can hear one bit of difference between a cable of different lengths. I think just get the shortest cable that will work for your system is the best bet. This ...
