Audiophile Receptacle question

You can use 12/3 or 14/3 Romex. The braided 4-wire is for 220v ranges & dryers. It’s braided because if it were solid you couldn’t pull it through studs and joists. Canceling EMI wasn’t really a consideration although it may work.

It’s not braided.

Some 3 wire + ground has a spiral its entire length. I have seen some that is flat.If using NM-B (Romex is a Trade Name) for best practices use 2 wire with ground.


If shielding is desired use 2 wire with insulated ground MC aluminum armor cable.
3 wire with ground (4 conductors) is not recommended be it Romex or MC cable.

I've  been upgrading all my equipment with Anticables Level 3 PC. They are decently priced and have improved the sound as advertised. Better dynamics, quieter background and better bass.

Porter Ports are great!  Cryo treated medical grade and Albert Porter is an Audiogon membrr.  Check out his system!

Cullen Cables are great as well!  I love mine :-)

Quietrock is definitely your friend. It will make everything sound better and will help with sound proofing your room so you can crank it up late at night and not bother anyone.

GIK acoustic panels are great as well.  You can build your own as well out of owens corning or roxul

My mistake. The spiral wind in the cable.
