30 feet comp to stereo, any problems?
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 be appreciated. Thanks very much |

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. |

Also you are quite likely to get noise from a potential ground-loop. geoff |

Thanks very much Just to report back, I used a 36foot length of RCA cable from Radio Shack and it works great! $19.95 Thanks for all the help. Dave |
