Okay, I'm using unshielded cables from both, my TT and preamp. The phono preamp is plugged into the wall using a c-7 cable. It's very quiet, no RFI. I did the star grounding with other cables and it worked okay, but why with non-shielded cables do I get better sound without them acting like antennas? Also, I have four dedicated circuits which everything is plugged into.
regarding shielding
My question...some interconnects have the shielding only connected to one end of the cable ( often the pre amp end) .WHY? If both ends are not connected then there would be no circuit, no current flow and so would there be any effect at all?
Is the idea not to send any generated current from interference to ground so it does not interfere with the signal?
