[QUOTE="Prowler573, post: 1752763, member: 561023"] Justify your position all you like but at the end of the day you are simply wrong. Period. End of story. How do I know? Well, I'll tell ya... After coming to this forum and seeing the seemingly never-ending debate on the proper way to run your interconnects I went and changed the way mine were run! (A rather laborious task in my car just for the sake of personal education, I assure you...) I do not have the uber-expensive RCAs...one set of RF Stealth Twisted, one set of StreetWires ZN2.0, and one set of Stinger Hyper-series...all around $20 for the 17-foot lengths I bought them in. So - that argument is out of the way. As it was commonly accepted wisdom to run interconnects on the opposite side of the car that's how mine were run. They now sit immediately next to the power cable that comes from the '+' post on my battery through the firewall and down the driver's side of my car underneath the carpet and whatnot to its terminus at the power distribution block in my trunk. Guess what? NO NOISE! Not one teeny weeny little bit. No, the RCA cables are not zip-tied to the power cable but they sit close enough that they [I]are[/I] physically touching one another. No noise outside of whatever is coming from the source. If there is inducted noise in the system it is indicative of faulty wiring or an improper install - not the physical location of the cabling. (this ironclad belief comes from the results of my own personal experience rather than a regurgitation of something I read somewhere else) /story [/QUOTE]
