The use of the cores is like this: + - - + Tying opposite pairs together like that means that even a very localized magnetic field induces virtually no voltage between the wires, without relying on the averaging effect of twisting the wires. Four core mic cable costs more that the two core equivalent, but you could try any general purpose 4 core cable. It doesn't have to be very flexible and mechanically noise-free like specialist mic cable usually is, as it will be permanently installed. -- Anahata anahata@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx -+- http://www.treewind.co.uk Home: 01638 720444 Mob: 07976 263827
