You've never heard of RFI problems in audio systems?


I've tracked down and solved thousands of RFI problems. None were
solved by "magic cables." Many were solved by replacing a *broken*
cable, but that's different.

Yes, RFI problems occur. No, monster cables won't make you immune
from them, any more than spreading around chicken bones and gris gris.

If you want RFI immunity, go balanced* and pay a lot of attention to
grounding. In seriously bad RFI environments you may need *gasp* a
transformer. This is proven technology, not the superstitious crap
from the boutique cable vendors.

So, please stop it with the RFI boogeyman. Do you get RFI with
commodity cables? If not, then give it a rest.
