I tried alt.home-theater and alt.home-theater.misc with no results on this
specific question.

I am in the process of finishing my basement and have run in-wall speaker
wire (Monster CI-Pro) for the speakers and subwoofer lines. Is there a
problem running the speaker wiring right next to the normal 12-2 outlet
power lines? For a 6' distance, the speaker wires are run next to the power
(110v 12-2) wires. Will this cause a problem interference that will be
noticable when the AV/Stereo is being used? I was told that this might
cause interference with the speaker or subwoofer operation.

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

As others have said you probably won't get any
noticeable hum. But have you considered safety? I
recommend that you don't have any signal cables in the
same wall cavity as power cables. A short is unlikely,
but if it happens it could be serious.
