What would cause noise (ground noise?) when touching the volume control and tone controls?
When I touch the metal top of the case in addition to the knobs, the noise will subside. This sounds like the controls are not properly grounded and the case may not be either. atmasphere +1 Probably the volume and tone control potentiomete... 
12v trigger setup with 2-channel and HT setup.
I thought perhaps the RMC1 could power up the amps and the JC2, but that doesn’t seem to work. The JC2 appears to flip out and shutdown... No, you can’t, because the JC2 does not has trigger input. However if my wife forgets to power up the ... 
I need impedance help. Rogue RH-5 to Solid State Amp.
The output impedance varied with both output and frequency. The unbalanced line output measured 0.5 ohm at 20kHz, 9 ohms at 1kHz, and 3.3k ohms at 20Hz, the last presumably due to a DC-blocking capacitor in series with the output. The balanced li... 
McIntosh MC901's internal active crossover & speaker's internal passive crossover
In the case of 3, only unbalanced amps with 1 hot output are safe. In case 3, higher possibility of ground loop noise. Also should avoid many Class D amp as well. However, case #3 is rare!    
Help - Thorens TD-145 Auto Shut Off Engages Immediately
I think what they mean is you loosen the two allen screws and you can twisted its pivot so that the anti skating dial is facing a slightly different direction, and that will change the auto shut-off position. If so, how do I figure out what is t...

Thanks for sharing the detailed information about your project👍, please keep us updated with your progress!    
My Luxman Integrated has AC Inlet Envy
The transformer may be 20 gauge but the fuse is 15A. Interesting, 15A fuse for a 110Wx2 amplifier! No soft start circuit?

Very nice! 👍👍 What is the transformer specs? Would you tell us more about the soft start circuit? TIA    
McIntosh MC901's internal active crossover & speaker's internal passive crossover
A biwirable speaker provides a separate path for lo and hi frequencies, but they are still joined electrically at the xover. @cleeds  Would you post some example what make and model of speakers that is bi-wirable but not bi-ampable? TIA  
My Luxman Integrated has AC Inlet Envy
Sadly the cord used from the power board to the inlet, about 8" long is 20 gauge. Kind of disappointing honestly, but probably exactly to spec. The choice of a Molex Spox connector I believe limits the maximum gauge to 18 anyway, so assuming I di...

Tomorrow I replace it. Good luck and please keep us updated with your progress!  
Zoomer needs help navigating 50's-80's Hi-Fi equipment
The adapter in/out may be for an external signal processor like the Audio Control Equalizer and not a true Preamp in/Main Out circuit that is used to hook up an amp or preamp to a receiver. Thanks @lou_setriodes, You’re correct about the " adap...

These are not convertible transformers. Thank you for your confirmation!
