Default Re: Golden Ear Laboratory Amplifier Build

So as a dummy, I am asking for advice. Negative feedback is supplied overall from the output transformer. Would there be, or is there ANY benefit in earthing screened cable at the output terminal, or at the input valve?

So to enlarge!.
I was thinking to run the overall feedback from the output terminals to the input stage as per normal.
I will take into account the amount of capacitance that is contained within the shielded cable when determining the response of the amplifier proper.
This cable has to run from the very back panel, to essentially the front panel, via the switch to setup balance and to zero the phase splitter.
Only ONE end of the screen will be earthed, so the question is:
Do I earth the screen at the output terminals?
OR the input terminals?.

Thanks in advance for ANY discussion on this subject.
