Jim, "directional" audio interconnect cables typically have two conductors for the signal path, plus a shield. The shield is connected at only the "destination" end of the cable. This is similar to some low-level instrumentation connections (where the signal flows through two inner conductors, and we don't want the shield contributing to circulating AC ground currents). The situation for "directional" speaker cables is a bit stranger, but, again, typically involves a shield connected at only one end of the cable. --Greg _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
