| Like I said - they're really not any different. If you put up 70e panels and diffusors INSIDE the room - they don't do much of anything to control sound getting out. They wouldn't do anything on the ... |

You can never have too much GOOD RG-6. Something like Belden 1694A, 1695A, or GEPCO VSD2001 will work for digital audio, any video, analog audio, etc.

I don't think anyone has issues with posting the numbers of the raw product you use. I think they're just asking for the link to them so they can be verified.
