Hi, everyone!

I'm going to connect the Sub using line input and get low noice connection. What cable should I use: shielded cable with phono plugs or regular (non-shielded) speaker wires?
Thank you.

A regular set of A/V cables (yellow, white, red).
Just use the yellow only - it is usually shielded coax-RG59.
That would be fine.

for longer runs you can also use coax with F adapters on the end (Radio Shack). that works for sub, a/v, and component video cables.
