>The theory goes that you can get the hot and colds effectively wound tighter
with the quad cable which helps ensure that noise induced on the cable is
common mode, and cancelled out by the preamps input circuitry (or transformer).
BUT...doubling the connectors adds capacitance to the cable, which can be
a factor for longer runs. Basically, I wouldn't run quad cable except if
RF interference was a problem. It's generally not worth the added hassle/expense.
Actually, boutique mic cables are not worth it either....we're talking about
a 150-200 ohm impedance at most mics outputs. Cable effects are going to
be minimal here....not like guitars where you're dealing with 100kohm impedances
and every foot makes a difference (in both resitance and c
