Depends on the quality of RCA's your using. Most of the time the RCA's will not pick up the power signal from the speaker wire. Most RCA's are at least double shielded now so in the event that you have a ground loop... check your ground wire first to see if you have a solid ground bbefore you start moving the speaker wires awa from the RCA's.
