Most people would look at my system and think it was a prime setup for shielded cables. In my sound room (let alone the rest of the house) I have Tivos, a rack of CD jukeboxes, video jukeboxes, computers, laptops, wireless internet, wireless phones, cell phones, at least 8 of my neighbor's wireless networks are strong enough for me to use should I choose...
Still I get the best sound with unshielded cables. Some might say it's because my hi-def audio path is all fully differential (sources, interconnects, preamp and amps), but even when I was running unbalanced in my old house with similar equipment I still got the most open natural sound with unshielded unbalanced cables.
YMMV :)
