It is indeed standard here... (in the Netherlands).
Most here do not consider driving a car with automatic transmission as it has nothing to do with driving.... (i love automatic transmissions myself so i do not follow that opinion btw).
I always play some loud organ music when it get's too hot in the house beefing up the BASS with my rotary sub's LOL

Expecially at the ends (so in the plug) it is essential to have some shielding as the cables within the connector are no longer twisted (now paralelled configuration) therefore noise can be injected plus the crosstalk between the signals will be much stronger. Again this is pure the technical...
I do not now the specs of the Taiko device, so their requirements must be met, that is all.... i aready have seen Taiko's answer in one of the entries... according to them a UTP cable should work best.
Do not think fiber is better just because it is fiber....this is not always the case.

Yes, placing a grounded metal grid of some kind will eliminate a lot of noise (also good for all your friends with enoying sounds coming out of their mobile phones whenever they receive a message LOL)...

This i can easily "hear" when placing a preamp on the floor (unshielded).

Main issue i feel with any repair or service is the transparency in what has been done on a specific item so at least you know why there are wires cut and left in the amp and not been removed (best is to discuss when working on the amp and not...
I think so too but it needs to be experienced and cannot be discussed over....
My designs follow an idea that i have "invented" as i have not seen it anywhere else implemented. I see an amp as a "unity" and every "restrain" beeing feedback etc. will be heard as compression of some kind but it is...
To where? unconnected ground / air ? Eddy currents? Please evaluate your finding. As without any technical proof i cannot be with you in this... and pointing to a product does not help here. The only "physical" connection the shield has is with the signal cables within the shield (the ones you...
