I want to hook the audio output from my computer to my stereo. It's
about a 30 foot run. Do I need to use shielded wiring for a run this
long? I don't know much about this kind of setup so any advice would


I'd use shielded, but you can most likely get by with ordinary
two-conductor.


Since computer itself is a big noice source I would say that it really
doesn't matter what cable you will use. I would go for cheapest possible
first and change it to shielded if needed.
