I'm ordering new fan snakes for adding more patchbays. Getting them through Seismic Audio, who seem to have good bang for the buck cabling that has nice gold tipped ends which are easy to fix or modify (ie replace XLR-M end to XLR-F, etc).
Most of my cabling only needs to be 3-5ft, but I am wondering about moving equipment in the future, and adding more equipment as well. My question is should I get the 5ft cabling, or spend the extra $5-9 and get 10ft cables. Will there be a drastic loss in signal quality? Again, this isn't Mogami, but I know every little "edge" helps in squeezing out the best in audio.
What would you do? Anyone ever have to deal with this?
Thank you for the help!

Yes, err on the side of more than you need. Tough to make them longer, easy to zip tie up any excess.
You won't run into any signal loss until you start hitting 100+ foot lengths.
The mogami name doesn't have ANYTHING to do with the quality of the wire, just the jacket.
Plenty of wire hits the same quality benchmarks. Mogami is just a proprietary jacketing material that's easy to cut. Nothing magic in their wire.
