I'm in the middle of a home automation layout (speakers in every room) and have already done one room with six lines of speaker wire (standard unshielded) going into various corners under a floating floor.
But i've got to spur out a few mains outlets and the mains cable will run directly across the speaker cables, -am a bit worried about the 50hz attenuation and possible clicks etc when high current appliances are switched on.
Would screened mains cable help (2.5mm 2 core and earth wrapped in foil) or place a short length of steel pipe a crossover points or should I get screened speaker wire?
thanks
