3-Meter vs. 10-Foot Long Speaker Cables


I know that this probably sounds like a silly, if not a stupid, question....

But I am currently using 2 separate pairs (Audioquest Caldera) of 3-meter long speaker cables in a bi-wire setup from amp to speakers. I am thinking of upgading one pair for the mid/high drivers to Audioquest Kilimanjaro or Everst. However, all I can find on Audiogon are cables that are 10 feet long....

So, would it cause any sonic problem if I were to use a 10-foot speaker cable pair for the mid/high drivers and a 3-meter pair for the bass? Three meter is 9 feet 10 inches, so it is 2 inches shorter than 10 feet.

Thanks for the help!

Here's the real problem: the way we audiophiles think, as you sit in front of our rig, you'll forever wonder whether or not you hear a difference and you'll never be completely satisfied until you either have two 3 meter pairs for 2 10 foot pairs or have tried the 3 meter for the mid/high and the 10 foot for the bass. :)

Ahhh, the problem with analyzing something which is a totally subjective experience with (ultimately) no way to define "good" or "bad".
I don't have the calculations in from of me but electricity flows at the speed of light through wire and a 2" difference in length will amount to a time delay which can be corrected for by moving the speaker with the longer wire about .01" closer to the listening position.
If you are going to mix and match copper and silver wires for the bass/mids & highs- that may present a sonic blending problem.
That would definetely overshadow a 2" length difference.
