Who makes a good or decent CD recorder?
I have older stand alone ones that were made for home use. They sound good with their built in A/D converters. The home ones need audio/music only type of blank CDs. If you buy a "Pro" type of recorder, it should be able to use regular data CDs. T... 
Stereo vs. Mono Extension Cables?
If you can try it and take it back, go for it. I don't see any problem. There will just be an extra wire and connection there, that won't be used. Going with a longer cable may cause a little volume loss, or high frequency loss, depending on the d...

Problem with bi amping speakers
There is also the possibility having mechanical feedback if your playing vinyl, and the record is getting vibrated from the sound. This would sound like what you describe. This could be happening now due to level mismatch that wasn't there before,...
