OK, in theory from this discussion should I take it that, all materials being equal, XLR cables are more resistant to noise than RCA cables? That noise can be both a function of cable length and EMF environment? And furthermore should I assume that more complex construction, at least in terms of shielding, should reap bigger benefits for RCA cables versus XLR cables? But what about wire configuration (I.E. metallurgy, thickness, shape) and dielectric composition? If you believe these are relevant at all, wouldn't they be relevant and affect the "sound" for both types of interconnects?
I understand and accept that many of these variables are highly application dependent (gear, physical location relative to EMF, ears and beliefs of the listener), and there is no substitute for "try before you buy", but I am just looking to see if I have grasped the relevant information in the discussion above...
