>What else is in the conduit?
Nothing. It's just plastic conduit I ran when the house was built 15 years ago for this kind of purpose. But it might pass by some AC wiring in the wall.
>If it's balanced 1/4" or XLR-esq signal, then longer runs should be fine. If you're running unbalanced (two conductor, audio + ground), then you run the risk of picking up a lot of interference.
I was thinking the latter.
>How long is the run?
Probably 25-30 feet.
>What is the source of the audio? Any chance of going digital? (optical, coax)
Well, that'd be cool- I've got cat 5 running all over - but I'm not sure how to use that in this setting without spending megabux.
