Default 1.5 foot vs 3.0 foot vs etc...

Drew, I'm planning on purchasing some of your ICs (I have some HD650 Blue Dragon v.3 cables...awesome!) but was having a discussion with a local hi-fi dealer. He's a very experienced guy with great ears and he was saying that, up to a point, he's found longer interconnects to sound better. He's really talking about lengths up to about 2m, not incredibly long runs.

What is your experience with this? I only need 1.5 footers for my setup on a rack. I'm going to have quite a bit of "leftover" cable with the 3.0 footers but am willing to do it if it's going to be an improvement in the sound.

While I have you - what's a recommended recable for my GS1000i's? The system is Cambridge 840C => ??? IC (currently Kimber Timbre) => Maxxed WA6SE => GS1000i.

Thanks!
