Cable Lengths

My longest cable is about 15 feet right now, because I have a 2-channel setup.

1: 0.5 - 10 meters - I'd say the average home theater enthusiast still has the majority of the cables in the range of 0.5 - 10 meters because most people have components right next to the TV, and 2-5 speakers, of which 2-3 are within 12 feet of the TV/components.

2: 35 feet. I'm planning to install some surrounds into the ceiling once I find some I like.

1. Most used .1 to 10 Meters
2. Aprox 12 Meters for a run from My Receiver to Pani AE900 Projector. I am looking at different setups, would prefer less than 7 Meters to avoid any possible signal degredation.

[O'Mo]

0.5-10 meters for sure! 33ft is a hefty run even for speaker cable.
I am hoping to keep my system fairly compact and avoid long runs. The longest cable run, not really expected even, but planned for (as a just in case scenario) is 25ft.
