    Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) RCA cables for unbalanced differential-circuit analog input

    I'm hoping to get a little advice, and maybe a product recommendation, for a roughly 15' 4-channel Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) RCA cable (or cables...) to use with the differential-circuit equipped multi-channel input of my Anthem Statement d2v 3D. There don't seem to be a lot of clear...
