Need suggestions for balanced equipment to Combat noise/hum
I ran a 20 foot rca between MWI Ambrose One and KWA 150SE temporarily without issue.  I also used the same 20 foot cable between another pre and power without issue.  I think your problem lies elsewhere.

Cartridge forgiving of "non-audiophile" recordings and pressings

My semi-educated guess is that the log outs are Agon's attempt to fix the "being logged in as a different user" issue.  In order for "keep me logged in" to work, the session needs to be kept alive.  I think sessions were getting mixed up between u...
