I am moving my sub to the rear of my sofa for corner loading purposes. and I either need to add an additional 18 ft cable to my existing Monster 300 cable (18 ft to 36 ft) or buy a new one.

(1) Will I experience degradation in sound if I use a female to female connector and add an additional Monster 300 18 ft cable?

(2) Assuming I get a new one piece 36 ft cable, is there really a sound quality difference between the following:
a: Monster 300
b: Bettercables
c: RG-6 coaxial
d: Bluejeans cable

Monster and Bettercables advertise better subwoofer sound quality and tighter bass. Alot of members on this forum just use RG-6 for extended runs.

Thanks in advance for any advice!

Save your money and just add to it. A single run would be best, but doubt that you would notice a difference between the two.

Use a good quality female to female connector if you go that route!

Oh, the cable brands. On a extremly high end system & sub, maybe a difference could be heard, but I would not bet on it.
