Any cons to LONG RCA's?

[BrianDye 10+ year member]

I have my seats out, and just FatMatted my floor, and im running all my wires UNDER the carpet instead of along the trim.

I have some nice RCAs but theyre so f***ing long, probably 20'

I dont know why I got those when I bought them, but whatever, long story short, is there any cons to having them so long? Or should I go drop $20+ on some shorter ones? I have alot of slack is what im saying just hanging around.

Thanks! Im literally waiting right now to put the carpet back in, so the sooner the help the better, thanks guys!

As long as you dont loop them it should be fine.

Loop? As in like zip tie the slack together?

When RCA cable gets looped it tends to act like an antenna, pulling in the electrical noise all cars have.
