Alright I need some opinions...
I have horrible alternator whine from my tweeters in my stereo...I am going to premise this by stating that I did not do the install...however I know it stems from one of these three issues or a combination of them:
1. Not the greatest quality RCA cables...
2. A bad ground (probably this)
3. The RCA cables are run right next to the power cables.
Here is my dilemma, I am having it fixed in two weeks, so as long as they are in there they said they would replace the cables if I had new cables...I know it is not recommended to put home theater cables in a car because of shielding however I have a pair of these...

that are just sitting in my house from when I switched my audio to optical for my home system...they have good shielding and are partially cross braided...so I would think it should be okay, however I don't want to roll the dice unless I'm completely sure this will be fine...
I can buy some street wires zero noise or something else but I don't want to pull all this apart ever again, so I am having the audio cables run up the middle of the car and leaving the power on the outside wall and moving the ground in order to solve all possiblel problems at once.
Will these cables be okay to use or should I buy an actual set of car audio cables...
PS - This is for a 4 channel amp running my inside speakers...
