<font color='#000000'>No, I haven't tested it but funny you should ask anyway. There is a discussion of how wire transmits signals on the Elliot Sound forum and a physicist chimed in with this:
<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>
Quote </td></tr><tr><td id="QUOTE">rough collection of relevent speeds:
Speed of a signal propogating on a wire: 2*10^8 m/s (.7 c)
RMS speed of a conduction electron in copper: 10^6 m/s (.003 c)
drift speed of electron current in copper at 1A/mm^2: 0.1 mm/s.
For almost any case, only the top number matters. The others are only relevent if you want to (for instance) derive the resistivity of copper.</td></tr></table>
So, you see, it's even faster at nearly 3/4 the speed of light (.7 c)
Of more concern (I suspect) with speaker wire relative length (maybe the biggest one) is impedance. But I suspect it takes a really gross mismatch to make much of an audible difference there, too. Easy to measure, though.
