| What happened here? jea48 - Plausible. Looks like an inferior connector, maybe defective from the start. My suggestion, don't use Rhodium ever for hi-fi. Silver all the way is so much better. | |
| XLR (Balanced) interconnect cable question Kimber are very good cables and not that expensive. | |
| How to fix my preamp dilemma +1 to repair the Parasound, if it's not way out of line. I REALLY doubt it's the power transformer. Most likely some bad capacitors, relatively cheap. | |

| My experience with bi-wiring The weakness for bi-wire is not the wire, it's the passive crossovers. Get rid of those components and go with only wire between the voice coils and amplifier outputs. Jason +1 for elimination of clipping. I tri-amp, also total elimination of inte... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? spiritofradio - The SAE 5000A is in a tape monitor on preamp, one switch. SAE also has a bypass switch on the front. I use the tape monitor so I don't think/can't tell if it effects sound. When the SAE is switched in, even when adjusted to "just" ... | |

| Whats on your turntable tonight? @reubentPuzzle - Yes it's vinyl, but first song on side 2 has a scratch from too many beers one night. I use my SAE 5000A for that song... | |
| SAE or Luxman gmosley - I didn't know SAE made a CD player, thanks for the correction. I've been an SAE fan since about 78'. | |

| het part 2 Can you feel any heat on the top of the metal cases for either units when they are in "standby"? If you can't, I would say the recommendation of silk would be much more desirable than plastic vinyl. There will be a very slight amount of heat that ... |
