I willl be running ML cabling this srping in my home. Does anyone have experience running the cable outdoors? It will be much easier to run it this way than to snake it through walls. etc.
I have several BL 3500's, a BL 2000 and a passive amp for my outdoor speakers. I will likely keep the passive amp indoors and run the IR eye and speaker wires outdoors (about a 40 ft run), but the 2000 and a pair of the 3500's would be routed through the wall in our family room, outdoors for 20 feet, them back through the wall.
I live in the NE US: just outside of New York City temps dipping into the teens occassionally (well, not THIS season, at least) and in the mid-upper 90's in summer.
Also, some feedback on using the new CAT cable would be appreciated (as opposed to the B&O ML cabling)
Temperature won't be an issue, but you should probably protect the cable from sunlight (use a conduit of some sorts) as the insulation may get brittle with UV exposure. And of course make sure that moisture doesn't get in.
