@rickisme,
I am running 22 foot speaker cables from my McIntosh MC302 amp to my GE Triton Reference speakers. I use Canare 4S11 speaker cable and the sound is fantastic. The Canare is 11 gauge, more than enough for the 22 foot runs. I have been using various 22 foot speaker cables for the part 25 years. My speakers are located across the room from the audio rack so the speaker cables go under the floor.
Ask yourself, do you really want to put that beautiful tube amp in the basement? I wouldn’t. The Canare speaker cables cost me around $170.00 for the pair and is one of the best bargains in audio.
