Would you use a cross-connected configuration as with the Risch 89259 speaker cable recipe or leave the shields unconnected? (Forgive me, but I'm a cable idiot. I wouldn't know the advantages of one configuration over another.)

I'll be building an 89259-based S-Video cable to connect a new SVHS player to my TV. It'll be a challenge soldering the cables to the S-Video connectors.

BTW, why are those connectors so small? I suppose the standards people wanted to keep costs down?
