I finished reading through the Wiring Your New House 101, 102, and 103 (awesome guides BTW!!), and have a question about Mic Cable.
I have decided on Belden for all of my cable needs, as I use their TP cable a lot, and really like it. When it comes to microphone cables, however, they do not seem to have many economical options.
The Wiring Guides, suggest 22/2 shielded microphone cable. The only 22/2 SMC I can find from Belden is outrageously expensive (like $1 per foot). I did find some 24/2 belden on eBay for very cheap, and some other brands for a decent price.
What would you suggest, or what have you used?
I plan on using the cable for the keypad mics, and wiring most rooms for possible Voice Recognition in the future.
