Shielded wire - PTFE

Insulated central conductor and braided shield; ideal for input stage wiring

Where you need shielding - for the lowest level signals in your amp, or to minimise the chance of oscillation - you can use this shielded wire. It has a white outer insulator, covering a braided screen, which shields the inner conductor (which has its own white PTFE insulation).
      Typically, you ground the shield at one end of the cable run to avoid ground loop hum.
      If you want wire to complete an amp build, you may prefer to save money by buying a pre-packaged bag of wire. This includes this shielded wire, assorted colours of hook-up wire and bare hook-up wire. See assorted wire pack for details and pricing.
