Long Run From Computer to Stereo

I'll second Hi5harry thoughts. It'll be way chaeaper and I suspect better in the end.... IF that is not doable, contact Audio Art cables. I'm sure there are others making good inexpensive cables, but I've some exp with AA. Mr. Fritz will give you the straight scoop on his cables in that application.

I agree too.

That is my present setup. I have small monitor connected to my computer by a 30' cable. I have used a wireless keyboard and mouse in the past but just recently installed an extra long USB cable which connects the mouse and keyboard to the computer. For this I needed a self powered USB extender cable and a powered USB hub.

Of course noise from the computer can be a problem so take that into account when planning your setup.

Thanks guys fo your swift input!

really appreciate that
and man you guys have some really nice gear!

But due to power issues and not wanting to plug my computer into the same dedicated circuit as my computer and just the whole logistical mess of it all for me,I think i am going to need to keep my computer over where it is. Plus my break out box is also powered and so that would have to be two powered items that i didn't want to have over at my stereo. But i did do some more investigation after posting yesterday and found Bayoucables.com(gets favorable reviews) and Butch will custom build me a 37 foot run of Canare GS-6 cables with one end 1/4" and the other with RCA terminations. Both runs for close to $100. I can't do better then that for the price i don't believe after researching this for awhile. And i am no DIY guy so to have him do all the terminating is huge for me as well.
He didn't think the excessive run with the good shielding of the Canare would be a problem.

thoughts?

and thanks again

A heavy duty extension cord, like a #14 AWG, coming from elsewhere can give you the relief you seek from added draw on the current systems power lines. I use a couple here and there for my PC & pc peripherals.... also for the Synergistic cabling I use. A PS Audio UPC 200 supplies all that stuff, feeding other power strips, BTW... I see they're not expensive any longer... about $200.... a Duet though would be a better pick at that price tag however IMO.

... as shortening signal cables is always a good idea... and extension cords cost what? $6?

Hell, at that price try a few... I've found some can be additive to the sound! They come in colors too! I like the flat white 14 AWG from HD & the beige 12 AWG from WalMart.

Nothing wrong with long audio cable lengths, provided you're using balanced differential signaling. I'm not familiar with the sound card you're using, but there are pro audio PCI cards out there that provide balanced differential outputs.
