Speaker cable length with monoblock amps?


If you position a monoblock amp close to your speaker (say within a foot of the speaker.) Would the shortest length cable, say 2' be the way to go?

May or may not be relevant to you but any cable less than 6’ is going to be a rough resell. Certainly if I was buying new that would be a major consideration. I use mono blocks that would work with a 4’ cable but I have an 8’ set and cross them behind the amps ie left amp is on the right side as I look at the speakers and so on
Someday you will replace your monoblocks with a stereo amp and your cables will have to be replaced.

I had Kimber make me some 1' silver cables when I had a pair of mono amps. The idea that speaker cables have to be a certain minimum length strikes me as an audiophile myth; I've never read any EE theory supporting the idea. Real short cables can always be used as jumpers on speakers having two sets of binding posts (for bi-wiring).
What price levels of monoblocks and cables are we talking about? At high level you should not worry too much about resale value.
@inna $15k a set speaker cables and $22.5k a pair amps, your point being? Yes I could have them (SR) make me up a set of short cables for $10k but who wants to pay this much for jumpers? 

As another poster suggested one option to a “free” set of cables is to buy a 10’ set, have it cut and reterminated and sell the remaining 6’ as a clean set. AQ is a really good brand to do this with as they will change up any of their cables at cost (although personally I have never liked the AQ speaker cables)
