Ultimate stereo nightmare


I have a complex stereo system, having accumulated many various components through the years. I also have an impenetrable jumble of wires.  Until now I’ve been able to deal with problems that arose. Now that I am elderly I can’t easily get down on the floor to assess things. I bought and installed new very expensive speaker cables (Audioquest Robin Hood), and subsequently found that my right channel was not working. After switching cables, the right channel was still not working. So the problem is somewhere in the system.  I don’t know if it’s a loose cable or something else and have no way of tackling the jungle of wires to check it out. 
I hired a company that claims they deal with these things, but there’s such complexity I don’t know whether they can deal with it.

My best guess is that it’s a loose or disconnected cable. No sign of a fuse blowing, but it’s possible.

I live in the New York area (Long Island.)

The Johnny Rutan of AudioConnection in NJ is pretty well respected. 

Money usually works. Wish I could help… but we are clearly on opposite sides of the country.

@rvpiano Seems like in NYC there would be a number of audio clubs you could tap for help. If you were in So Cal Id gladly come and help on this weekend. Best of luck. 

I can really identify with your predicament @rvpiano . My knees a not what they once were and getting between the left or right speaker and the equipment rack is scary and painful. When one thing gets loose, and I need to start troubleshooting, it is not a happy time.  

I hope the tech is able to identify and remedy the problem, which is probably something simple.
