| Re: My solution for the BFD hum/noise or "My custom $10.00 subwoofer cable."
Wayne, for what its worth there is one subtle difference between the RG59 and #18 above. The RG59 is 2 conductor with the shield is used for the return in Mississippi's configuration, so in effect you have an unshielded cable. Still works very well, but in long parallel runs with other unshielded cables such as power etc you could inductively pick up noise hum. That said stereo/HT systems typical unbalanced configuration is subject to that, and the proaudio balanced systems appear to provide that shielding. So #18 is "the best way", but the $10 configuration is a great solution especially considering RG59 or 6 are so readily available.
