When you have grounded shield around the conductor that carries the signal it will "absorb" outside noise that other components in the chassis make (transformers, other signal leads, AC wires, etc). Usually it's grounded on the other side, but sometimes I use it to connect gain/volume pot to the closest grounding point. In that case it's grounded on one end and connected to pot's 3rd lug on the other. See my <a href="http://diy-fever.com/amps/black-box/" rel="nofollow">Black Box Preamp</a>, there are some pix that show that.</p> Shielded wire can help reduce noise, especially in the preamp section.

In other words, when should I think about using shielded and grounded wire? How are you using this? In other words, when should I think about using shielded and grounded wire?
