Well... I'm hoping Canare is right, only because I don't want to pull these cables apart and start over. I was having pretty serious noise problems with the "off the shelf" RCA cables I have been using, and these will be a big improvement regardless. If there is any detectable noise though, I will pull them apart and try it your way. Plus I redid all the cables for my buddies bar a month ago and wired this way with starquad. I need to keep a clean conscious or I'll be over there with my soldering iron because I feel guilty!
