It's plenty long for most runs, but not so long as to have a pile of it sitting unused. Mind you, I don't mind having the longer one available, but I've already ordered a 20' one to install in my setup, so if I could to pick any length to be included, 7 meters would be just about right.
I've got a decent size space in my basement for studio and office. And still have a lot of length left coiled up after stretching across the room to a rack. However, if I wanted to snake around the perimeter to prevent tripping hazards, it would need to be even longer. I just scream, watch out for that cable!!! every time my wife walks by.
Man cave not safe!
