Re: Shielding AV cables from mains?

["psghome2002" <psghome@xxxxxxx>]

To put it in perspective - how many people have a home cinema system 
where the speaker cables are in a mess behing the TV, bundled close 
to the many mains sockets. I've had this mess for many years (just 
about to sort it though) and never noticed a problem. Of course the 
incomming mains supply will put out a considerably stronger field.
