There is a claim that digital cables should be 1,5 meter due to some reflection impedance missmatch or somesuch with spdiff and this should be ideal for some reason , have not studied this in detail so I have no opinion on it (yet).
However this does not apply to analog cables, so these can be in any practical length you desire, however if one don't want to buy new cables all the time make them long enough so that you can move around your equipment or for example add an extra shelf in the rack for future components. Or if it's blue jeans cable that are not super expensive, just get the length that fits now. -- Mnyb -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
