Interconnects, speaker wire, power cords. Ask the Cable Guys.

Re: I like to DIY, you might like it too!

You might be interested in my new project (work in progress). Currently I'm working on a active shielded interconnect and speaker cable. My demo cables use over the counter Canare wiring (star quad and 4S11 speaker cable). It's based off an earlier project I did years ago grounding the return in a coaxial cable. That project through the help of a couple audio dealers (stupidity on my part) paved the way for the Synergistic and Tara isolated grounded offerings.

Anyway the speaker cable turned out very good so far. You have to play with the shield layering to get the desired effect, but all in all it does a fantastic job of removing a couple layers of noise for little cost. I use 3 isolated layers of copper braid soldered together at both ends. For the demo version I wired the drain wires into a ac plug and plugged it into my power conditioner (the power conditioner filters the ground).
