I again let the system warm up as needed, and sat back for further troubleshooting, and nothing, no problems at all, just pure uninterrupted music. I've been in audio a long time, and I have no idea whatsoever as to how cables could cause all of those problems and exactly the same in both speakers? Later in the day, I put the new cables back into use, and boom, the same exact problems returned. After swapping the original cables back in, again, all the problems disappeared, no pops, no crackling, no hum. [...] Something clearly isn't right here, but I am not going to use their name, given that this is one, single instance, and also one that I can find no one I know of in audio who has been able to explain. If you don't want to reveal the brand, can you at least tell us if there's something unusual about the "bad" cables? Things like high capacitance or odd/no shielding. asdf1000 and lucretius 2 Link to comment
