RE: Speaker cables -- different lengths for L/R ok?

I used to have a setup like that, using Mapleshade Golden Parallel cables. One wire was about 25' long and the other about 30'. Mapleshade advised me that they recommend that unequal lengths were ok as long as the longer cable was no more than 150% of the length of the shorter. I certainly heard no problem with 25' vs. 30'. Full disclosure: that wasn't the most ruthlessly revealing system (Acurus preamp, NAD amp, Musical Fidelity V-DAC, Joseph RM22si speakers).

Happy listening,

Jim
