How can I shield cables from interference?


What is a good, inexpensive way to shield power cables from both picking up and transmitting interference to nearby audio cables? Is there a way to use tinned copper sleeving like techflex to create a DIY shielded cable?

The idea you mention is a good possibility. You have to solder a bit of wire from the shield to the ground pin of your powerplug which goes into the wall. The end , which goes into your gear, you'll have to leave open. This works only however, if you have a properly grounded line.
Besides, never run pcs in long parallels with your other wires and if you have to cross other wires with your pcs, try to do this at right angles. As set up like this, mostly helps a lot.
What about running a separate ground cable from the shielding near the male termination, instead of removing the plug and soldering to it?
Sure, should be no problem as far as I can see. I just find the first solution a bit more simple and less wires hanging around.(-:
