Speaker Cable/Wire Lengths

 

Is it true that speaker cable/wire lengths should be the same for the fronts and similarly for the rears(i.e. if fronts are 6' and 12' and rears are 9' and 15' you would use 12' for the front and 15' for the rear)? Would you also match up your center with the fronts?

that is an interesting question. My receiver asks for the distance from the primary listening position to each speaker in the room, but it doesn't say anything about speaker wire. I suppose there is a certain amount of db loss associated with distance on even the best wire... yet, I don't know that there would ever be a noticable difference between 12 and 15 feet, even to the most discriminating listner, after all, the signal is moving on the wire very quickly.
