A difference that long cables make can be heard in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SorO-QpqYRU .

Therein, audio from a microphone is sent through progressively-longer cables until the length reaches ~6 miles. It gets pretty muffled-sounding... eventually.

(The longest pair of wires I've sent analog audio through was in the realm of 37 miles, stretching across the countryside. AMA, I guess.)
