One of that problems I've had with microphone cables of the unbalanced
kind is not hum, but crackle. It sounds like static as if there are
minute discharges as the cable is moved or bent.

Mics are a different kettle of fish as the level from them can be very
low. More akin to a pickup cartridge. IMHO, mics are better balanced,
unless the cable run is very short.

But my problem is at standard domestic line level.
