Re: Question about whole house audio



Marcus,

I ran a line of STP (shielded cat5) alongside every speaker pair for
this very purpose.
I hadn't originally thought of it - and it was my hi-fi shop that
recommended it.

(not that I've actually got around to connecting the cat5 to anything
yet, mind you !!)
