I'm hoping to get a little advice, and maybe a product recommendation, for a roughly 15' 4-channel Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) RCA cable (or cables...) to use with the differential-circuit equipped multi-channel input of my Anthem Statement d2v 3D. There don't seem to be a lot of clear...
I saw this video today on YouTube, . It’s D’Amore Engineering explaining that we should only use 75 Ohm cables with single ended analog inputs, and twisted pairs on differential analog inputs (more rare). This video is short and concise, and the logic makes sense to me. Unfortunately, I’m...
Using newly repaired turntable. Left channel on my Technics SA 205 receiver works for a while, then cuts out. Sometimes I can hear static like sound from the left speaker. The red/white RCA cables, I swapped one pair for another. if I move them in a particular way, a loud hum is emitted from...
I'd like to set up my turntable about 12ft from my receiver on a straight line, but more like 16ft-20ft to have the RCAs wind their way over to the spot where the turntable will sit.
So the setup will be turntable to phono preamp, phono pre to receiver. I've heard people say that your turntable...
Hey All,
Long time lurker - first time poster.
I've had an Realistic STA-2000 in storage for years - it belonged to by grandfather. My brief perusal of the forums leads me to think this should be a decent receiver - maybe not Sansui or Marantz good - but decent. Its 75 WPC.
My Fiance had it...
So I have intermittent left channel drop out, and felt that replacing the RCA cable from the deck would be a start to solving the issue. Thankfully when I got into the guts of the TT, I saw 4 spade connectors (picture 1) vs. soldered wires. I have been succesfull at removing the wires without...
Hi forum members,
I recently bought a NAD C355BEE second hand and during my shopping I found a NAD video explaining the difference between the C316BEE and the C326BEE. The advisor was saying that the pre/main jumper was the biggest difference and that one thing that could be done to improve your...
I am looking for an affordable but good RCA connector cable brand and source.
Not high end audiophile. More like, for a garage or college student's room or office. Under $10.
Something a bit longer then the "default" type that might come with a consumer product (if at all).
I like them when the...
I have a new(ish) Yamaha AV receiver. It is fine for TV and movies and even music (actually, it is more than fine). But, I have an old analogue RCA only Pioneer receiver I would like to use too with some old speakers. Because, nostalgia or whatever you want to call it…
I only have one room this...
Hi. This post is regarding home audio use only. Not professional.
I have a few turntables (2x Technics SL-1200mk2, SL-5300, SL-J33) and a
Pioneer DJM-300-S deejay mixer/ phono preamp. I connect the mixer to a vintage stereo receiver with phono inputs via RCA cables. Even tho the mixer is a...
Hello, I have a dual 604 that is using a shure m97 as a carttidge. When plugged into the phono jacks on my receiver, there is no sound. I have checked continuity from the cartridge mount to the rca cables and everything is fine. Any ideas as to why there is no sound? The receiver im using is an...
