Surround Speaker cabling question

Yes, it is a question of degree and, with short lengths of hefty cable, there should be no detectable difference. I use unequal lengths in my MCH system but with overkill cables and it's just dandy. If the discrepancy was 2ft vs. 200ft, that's another story.

For left and right front channels, using excellent quality cabling, would you hear a difference between 1.5m for one side and 5m for the other? Opinions?

Depends on wire gauge and power levels.

I said "Depends on wire gauge and power levels." I should have added that I have a similar difference between sides and there's no detectable problem.

My opinion is 'no'. I'm running 4- and 9-foot lengths of premium cables to my L/R speakers. The one clear result of matching lengths is bad--the speaker with the longer-than-necessary cable has looser bass because it's seeing a much lower damping factor.
