We are finishing our basement and the speaker wires have already been put in place for the rear speakers, but not the front speakers. I have been told the length of the speaker wires should all be the same so that the sound arrives at the speakers at the same time. Is this true? If so, i sure hope the contractors measured how much was used on the other side. Thanks for the help in advance.

    That myth has been going around for years. Please, please do not worry about it. Whoever started that myth never studied audio engineering.

    Speaker wires need to be as short as possible and of a proper guage (probably 16 guage or bigger).
