Shielding your DC cable with an external braided shield (and a drain wire attached to the end points of the shield) made a great improvement in my setup.
It is called JSSG 360, and there is a lot of info about this subject on the computer audiophile website. It creates a faraday cage around your cable and blocks leakage current from stray voltages generated inside your cable or from induction of external sources.
I have it applied on DC, USB, Ethernet and have gained massive noise reduction (blacker background) in my setup. Some people doubt the shielding effectiveness (compared to unshielded, floating shield, one end connected shield etc...), but my ears tell me something else.
My current DC cable is a mundorf silver gold in starquad with JSSG 360 shield. I haven't tested duelund yet.
Follow Ups:
Have you tried A-B listening comparisons with the external wire on vs off the shield?
BTW, how did you get the Mundorf wire into star quad geometry, hand twist?
Good point, TanteJuut. Experiments with braided copper shielded twisted pair DC umbilical builds provide notable benefit.
The self-shielding geometry of a cross-connected star quad VH Audio V-Quad DC umbilical is very beneficial in this regard.
