I was wondering if there is any drawback to have extra length to subwoofer cable?
I am ordering a cable and I am looking at either 35ft or 50ft. If I measured right 35ft. should be enough with everything in its current position.
I was wondering about ordering the 50ft. in case I move stuff around later. Would the extra length have any adverse affect to the audio quality?

Thanks

It shouldn't, but IMO get the length you need now and, if you need more later, get a coupler + whatever additional length of cable you need.

For what it's worth, I have 4 sub woofers and 2 amps for 8 bass shakers all being split from a single subwoofer output on my receiver. That easily introduces more issues than a 50ft cable would, and I have no issues. I say go for the longer cable.

Good info, I figured as well why not have some extra if no performance loss.

Monoprice has some nice RG6 shielded mono RCA cables. I am using a 35ft cable + probably 25ft of in wall RG6 coax to carry my LFE signal with no issues.

That's what I just ordered.
