Are you having audible trouble with interference with your power cables and interconnects? Have you tried temporarily separating the power cables from the interconnects? I doubt you will hear a difference. Do you really want to go into all the trouble and possible wasting your time in making pipe insulation and than not hearing a difference? I once tried to separate power cables from interconnects and also use the right angle rule. I did not hear a difference and I have a highly resolving system that costs over 28K.
How to Separate and Insulate AC and IC cables
My set up forces me to run my interconnects and my power cords and my speaker cables through a 3" hole behind my amplifier. I know this is audio sin, but I need to keep my components where they are; it's a custom built maple and slate wall cabinet/shelving system. I've thought about drilling two other holes down through the shelf behind my amp, which would separate the cables at that point, but I'm shy about drilling into my new cabinetry.
Here's what I'm considering:
I want to insulate my cables and cords from each other using some sort flexible tubing. I've contemplated garden hose, clear plastic hose, pipe insulation. Is this adviseable? What are the drawbacks of doing this? Anyone know of a cost friendly product that would serve my purpose?
