RE: The distinction is between RF noise and audio band noise.

Howdy

Perhaps I misunderstood you post.

I saw: "To extract every bit of detail (pun intended) from a well-recorded Redbook CD, you need cables that are both shielded and damped." which seemed pretty unambiguous.

But perhaps you meant it to be read with your subject: "Only for lower-resolution systems to extract every bit of detail (pun intended) from a well-recorded Redbook CD, you need cables that are both shielded and damped."

Anyway, yes, I understand the distinction you are making between RF noise and audio band noise and I also understand a lot of the many ways they interact in practical systems. However I still stand by my statement that there are well designed systems that aren't nearly so twitchy as apparently many posters here are subject too.

In fact one might state: "if you can't hear how a shield deleteriously affects your audio your system isn't very revealing" I know that this isn't really true in general but it's at least as true for many systems I know as my reading of your first post.

P.S. Perhaps if I get down your way I visit you, Bart and/or some of your friends.
