I recently moved to a new apartment and the way the set up works, I cannot easily place my Play 5 right next to my turntable as I’ve done previously. I’m thinking of running an audio wire through a wall in my closet to the Play 5 but wanted to check to see if there is a max length you guys would recommend for the wire to not distort the audio quality? I think the max length I would need is 10 to 12 feet.

 

Thanks,

 

George

I think there would not be any significant signal loss across that length. I’d start being concerned on lengths over 30ish feet, but it would of course be dependent on the actual cable construction.
