Some of the better makes used balanced interconnection. That removes

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.


It depends just how much low level stuff you're routing to the back. If
only a sub feed a pair of 5 quid transformers will do it.
