I would not say immune but it's kind of better than RCA connection.
But at its bottom it's a digital connection and many of us have experienced different sounding AES/EBU-Cables. The difference proofs in the more/less Jitter the cable produces. There would be much more Jitter added on a xx-meter-cable.
I think that Jitter is the first to get reduced because it bother us more than any other 'distortion'.
The added 'Phaseshift of frequencies' that come with longer speaker cables your ears/brain can compensate quiet easier hence I would go with long speaker cables.
