they’d be mad about the lack of shielding, which COULD result in noise from interference. it won’t, but audiophiles love ignoring real-world measurements in favor of theoretical ones.

Audio goes over balanced cables, as long as they’re close together they should receive equal and opposite interference, so interference is cancelled out
They wouldn’t hear any difference whatsoever: https://www.tomshardware.com/speakers/in-a-blind-test-audiophiles-couldnt-tell-the-difference-between-audio-signals-sent-through-copper-wire-a-banana-or-wet-mud-the-mud-should-sound-perfectly-awful-but-it-doesnt-notes-the-experiment-creator
That’s the joke. They would claim that … I don’t know… electrons are going to fall off that copper wire or something like that.
