Long power cable for subwoofer

I'm thinking about moving my SVS SB16s and require longer power cords, about 15 feet.  All I've found in the 10awg range were like 6ft or 2 meters. Even Monoprice doesn't have anything that's not 18awg or maybe 14awg.  Does this really matter?  I don't want to spend tons of $ on subwoofer power cables.

Build your own. 13AWG is probably heavy enough. I’ve used this wire and it punches well above its price.

For plugs these are very good for the money.

Thanks @yoby 

Honestly my mind was eased when others agreed there is no reason to go high end on a subwoofer power cable.  I mean the topic is somewhat debatable on any piece of equipment, but on a subwoofer, I can definitely see why it matters much less.  For now, I'm using 3 ft extension cords.
