topher,
I was thinking about ppl's idea (the link I provided was found by a friend at work and is unrelated to ppl) - but my question is what actually ppl's idea IS - to run two lengths of coax to speakers and use CENTER conductor in each run ONLY, leaving outer not connected to anything? I don't think that using single coax would be a good idea at all - coax is extremely non-symmetrical construction, not to mention one "conductor" surrounds the other, plus there is no shield in that case. So the idea is to use each coax as a single thick wire, with outer conductor as shield. Right?
