Has anyone got any idea if there's likely to be an actual problem if I
route all my wires down the same side of the car? I'm going to be
making my own phono cables, so any recommendation of types of cable
that are particularly well screened would be helpful.


Some of the better makes used balanced interconnection. That removes
pretty well any likely problems. Not that difficult to adapt unbalanced
gear to balanced if you encounter problems.


Aha. Not that difficult sounds like "a pain in the neck" if I can easily
avoid the problems by careful cable routing. I didn't realise there were
problems with normal unbalanced cables for normal use, although I suppose a
car is a pretty poor environment for wires. AFIACS I'd have to be spending
serious money to get kit that used balanced connections.
