Do I need to keep my leads separate?

[dan986]

I'm just setting up my wiring from NTL box, DVD and LCD screen and I was wondering if I'll need to keep my leads apart to avoid interference, or isn't this the case?

The leads I have coming from the LCD are:
a £40 IXOS round scart
a £35 IXOS flat RGB scart
a decent IXOS scart to 3 phono lead
a decent aerial lead
and the original power lead.

Obviously I want to make them look all neat and tidy, but I don't want to have them all running together if it will cause interference.

They're all good leads and should be insulated, but will I have to keep a bit of distance between them and if so what leads are safe being next to each other?

Technically you should keep signal carrying leads seperate from mains leads. In the real world, providing the leads are well shielded, you shouldn't have a problem.
Best thing is to bundle them up and try it. If you think you can notice a difference between them bundled and seperate then you should seperate them.
