[QUOTE="Dan Mortensen, post: 83445, member: 2826"] Re: AC and signal cable of whatever type Yes, I've been discussing multiple issues. The issue that I regard as closed is the one about how wrapping Cat5 cable around an AC cable puts it at the ragged edge of performing or not. That, I firmly believe, is incorrect based on credible anecdotal evidence found so far. The issue that was under discussion in the post you quote is "can bending, stomping on, kinking, etc. a Cat 5 cable disrupt the connection between the console and the S16?", as alleged by a couple posters (including me), and a corollary issue, "does wrapping a Cat 5 cable around a ferrous object disrupt/affect the connection?". The answer so far to both of these is "not when I'm trying to do it, although experts say yes". Agreed about specs and the meeting of them, but I've seen nothing alleging that the Behringer products are not meeting specs, and have absolutely no reason to suspect they don't. Do you have different answers to any of these issues, along with some sort of evidence? With all due respect, you made a very strong statement with little ambiguity in your post about wrapping Cat5 and AC which scared the crap out of me, while your second paragraph above which apparently explains your reasoning is much more vague.
