Hello,
Is it necessary to keep the copper shielding as part of the ground connection to the stereo jack?
Can't I just remove the copper shielding and keep the clear and black wires as the ground instead ?
I have used this cable before for recabling and used the clear, black and copper shielding as the ground (and it worked just fine) but I want to remove the rubber jacket and copper shielding as the cable is too stiff and would like to use a more softer/flexible cable sleeve.
