I was looking at my PG zeropoint rcas, and they have a translucent blue outer sheild and what looks to be aluminum foil as an inner shield. I'm planning on running a single set of these rcas straight back through the counsol along with my ainet cable, and the cable for the g320 display. I'd like to make a type of umbilical cord for all of these. With them all inside one grommet, and I'd like to wrap the whole thing with a layer or two of aluminum foil and them wrap it in wide electrical tapeto shield it from anything it may pick up along the way. Would this help? if so, should I ground the foil at both ends? can I wrap each individual cable with foil, then electrical tape, then put them in the umbilical cord, and ground all of it. thanks,

I don't think it would help that much. Your AiNet cable will probably be shielded as well as the other display. As long as you don't get noise introduced into your RCAs byt the other two cables I see no reason to shield them.

In total agreement with Jc, you should have no problems, the display cable should be shielded to prevent rf leakage to the other cables, and they all also have shielding. It would take quite a bit to introduce a noise...

If it dont fit, force it... if it breaks, it needed to be replaced anyway...

could it hurt it if I did it? and how would the sheilding work? would I need to ground both ends of it? thanks for the help with the apline cables! cut my time by 2/3. thanks,
