What interconnects for my amplifier?

[Speedskater]

Ground loops are eliminated by eliminating the... Loop - this is why you connect the cold and ground lines of unbalanced connections using XLRs OR RCAs and 3 wire cable ONLY at the source.

That doesn't e;eliminate the loop, it just makes the loop much larger. You will still have Common Impedance Coupling Noise. But the current might flow thru the AC power system and your audio circuits commons.

For single-ended, unbalanced RCA interconnects, the best plan is to use a coax with a heavy braided shield.

90% to 100% of that article was a contorted car analogy.

I love audio to car analogies.

So which wires are like LEXUS and which wires are like KIA?

So which wires are like LEXUS and which wires are like KIA?

Haven't looked closely enough, but when I have it said 12g or 14ga, hdmi, or coax. Does that count?

oh, wait, had 8ga when installed landscape lighting many moons ago.

Mine are neither. Mine are this!!!!!

You forgot the teaching... What you have to teach will determine Who is the 'Padawan'. Professor, I yield the floor.

Not all are receptive to teaching, as you know very well, old padawan.

After his drumphy stuff hard to consider any teacher status at all, more like a demented sycophant at best.
