rookie drunk move

ok ok ok, first off thanks all to
1. caring about my sobriety,
2. recommending booze alternates,
3. giving me sh*t

deserving of all (though it was quite a tasty unfiltered wheat, hence the desire to drink more instead of less).

The cabling I was modifying was just re-insterting jumpers that had been there before.

I guess the real point of my question is what some of you pretty much alluded to...amps either work or dont? there would be no sound at all, not just a slight degradation in sound if I really screwed something up. I'll try unplugging the amps and then in again to be sure.

thanks for the advice and ribbing :)

Maybe you wired out of phase?

trashed my first cartridge that way.. Decca gold...

Tholt,
Looks like you passed the test.
We'll drink to you!
I'm certain all is well with your "system", audio system, that is.

Now, if I could just get Viridian to stop replaying his bawa stwiisand music- then he might spend less on the black tar.

Sometimes simply moving a cable about with the prerequisite bending & flexing can change the sound briefly till it settles back in. Especially with active shielded cables.

But if you decide to ensure the connectivity path is as secure as can be...

DeOxsit the spades and posts... maybe twice, depending.

Then Pro gold or Walker-ize ALL the terminations... only a drop or two of either is needed.

Listen.

then drink as you wish. The sound will change following the drinking. Mine always did... ultimately the sound was muted. so much so I'd just pass out.

Now it's just old age that makes me pass out while listening, so I no longer need the alcohol... unless I'm doing 'rock classics' that night, they'll keep me wide awake!
