Re: STP for unbalanced Stereo


Hello


While it is quite true, that there is more crosstalk between L&R in microphone cable vs "diode"-cable ( = normal stereo rca cable )  with a distance of 50 feet / 15 meters I would say in MOST cases there are possibly no problems with either one - I used to feed two monitpr/FB-lines with 100/30 snake that had just one too few lines on it - no problem - output impedance was typical 50-200 ohms...


Now - if we are landing on HiFi-land ( hopefully not - I am out ) we can talk about the difference with having one vs two shields between those two places - obviously with diode-cable one can leave the shield unconnected in one connector of four...


Conclusion - whichever cable you have, will work - just make sure connectors are well soldered.
