What a journey!!!!! First congratulations on solving this bugging situation, what a nice example of fellow 'goners help and manufacturers backing their product.
This reminded me about checking the cable layout in my system. I recently moved and overlooked this aspect. So specially all friends that have the classical rat's nest situation , take your time and improve this to get better sound / avoid unsuspected problems.
