Apologies if this has already been done and I've missed it.
Cable manufacturers make much of their insulators, and audio magazines and forums make much of keeping signal and power cables separate - if cables must cross, they should only do so at right angles. On one forum, a guy swore by wrapping tin foil around each cable at every point of intersection with another. Apparently it reduced the noise floor. Presumably he used any leftover to make himself a hat.
I wonder if this could be tested, with various bog standard and extra special audiophile cables, to see whether cable interactions make measurable differences to signal. Would you be up for this @amirm?
