Speaker cable vs. interconnect cable length

http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?fcabl&1104051416&openfrom&1&4#1

Go with short speaker cables and long interconnects.

Actually, a very deep amp from front to back or speakers that are about 20ft deep should solve your delima nicely!

Sorry, couldn't resit.

You'll probably get answers from both camps here. My experience tells me 9 times out of 10 short speaker cables, longer I/Cs. Reason: Long I/Cs are typically being driven by an active source typically feeding an active load. With speaker cables, they are driven by an active source (the Amp) feeding a passive load (the speakers).

Hope that helps a bit Icsi.

Yes, it's been debated at length, to no resolution, which is a good indication that it doesn't matter all that much. If it's more convenient to do it one way rather than another, do it that way and don't worry about it. Apologies to those for whom worrying is the whole point. ;-)
