Agreed with Elizabeth. I use Kimber PBJ, and custom made Silver in a similar braid as the Kimber, no hum or noise unless lying parallel to power cords. I prefer non-shielded when possible. My length of IC is shorter than Elizabeth's at 4 meters, but very quiet. Use shielded power cords and you should be fine. Be sure to not have dimmers in the room. If you use Class D amps, there may be more problems with noise.
I use AQ Sky, Cardas Golden Reference, Groneberg for shielded cables, and Silver custom braided ones, and they are all quiet. I am switching them all the time to compare and shielding has not been quieter. Enjoy, Jallen
