Closed Loop Stepper Cable Sheild?

Again, thank you for the detailed explanation, I'll get some more research done my end, but this is looking promising.

Thanks once again

So I bit the bullet and ordered the Servo Motor Drives, Motors, and all the cables to match.

Up until a week ago, I'd never even considered Servos as I thought they were way out of my price range, but to be honest, if any of you are thinking of upgrading to Closed Loop Steppers it might be an idea to go one step further and grab a Servo instead, there isn't much difference in price to be honest.

Thanks again m_c for your input, I'll be putting a new post on the 'Stepper and Servo Motor' thread once they arrive, as this post has gone off topic now and I'm sure I'll have more questions once I get around to hooking them all up.
