Well, that's one for the audiophools, not me, I'm not in any way, shape or form a 'cable freak'! On the contrary I have track record of boo-hooing high priced, audiophile cables for years. No, Craig suggested that there are ways to stop mobile phone hash getting into equipment via mains leads, that's my interest as he raises a good point if you read his post on the subject. Otherwise wet string (or if it's serious, bell wire) does for most of my hookups
