Re: [ARSCLIST] Audio equipment cable shielding
By the way, BALANCED audio uses 3 pinned connectors, sometimes refered to as Cannon or XLR connectors. UNBALANCED , mostly, RCA connectors- A single pin protruding from a shell.
Signal leads from turntables use RCA connectors. But the output from the phono preamp could be either RCA or cannon, xlr connector.

We are doing some re-arranging of our studio here at the shop. We're
encountering hum from the audio cables being in proximity of power cables
and possibly from florescent lighting (!) Is there some way to shield
audio cables from the influence of power sources? I've read that one
should always cross audio and power cables rather than having them run in
parallel. Any suggestions would be appreciated!
