I need about 20 feet of screened cable to go from my HI-FI to my computer so I can record a few LP's to my Computer,so I went to Comets and spoke to there manager all he could sell me was 1.5 Metre long of 3.5mm Stereo"Y" Adapter,pair of RCA Inline Connector and 10 Metres of 2x Phono Plug /2xPhono Plug is this correct to work from the HI-FI to the Computer and is screened.I am a novice so I hope I was advised right.Any input would be appreciated,and thankyou in advance.

just go to a tv repairer and ask him to make you a leed of the required lengh and sockets. should be maile RCA plugs to 3.5 mm stereo headphone jack

when I done the same thing as yourself I used normal speaker type cable and some of the stuff you mentioned above

it is a slow process but if you have the time and patience enjoy your fun

Thankyou,Thunderchild,spacechimp & bob57 I know how to connect the cables up to each other,but my cousin in London told me to get the cables screened to stop intrference I hope I have.Thanks once again.

Speaker cable is for the other side of the amp, it's not the same stuff you'll use for connecting line-level signals together.

Most cables will be screened, you'd be very hard pushed to find an audio cable that isn't.
