Hi
Just wonder
Forget price and to short or to long
Will a 10ft cable (a good one) will sound less good than a shorter 6ft one ?

No. With everything else being the same, the difference would be indistinguishable.

I'd get a 10ft. Better more than less. You know, in case you wanna lie down, or move a bit. 6ft is by experience, quite restrictive.

There would be a distinguishable difference if the cable was around 200 feet long or so (I'm not sure of the cable length for audio, but Ethernet), I believe it would depend on the audio, and of course the ears :P
4 feet will make no difference.

It is a drag if you're using it for portable use, but maybe not as bad as I thought... Would work out in the long run; home use, etc.

Actually, with low-level signals and applications, you can run out to about 50 ft. without a significant loss in signal output or quality.
