3) I have plenty of spare cables.

Everything and nothing is snake oil. Stairway to Heaven "supposedly" has satanic connections

This is way beyond my comprehension, so I'm going to stop my thoughts here. He has a phono preamp, and he still wants to use the amp as a pre? Any who, just dropped in to try to give advice on the hum problem, this is way too convoluted. I'd disassemble the amp, and see if the coupler is...

I've looked at the photos and read everything, I'm still not certain what he wants to achieve.

Small room, with a table-cum-shelf built in. Also, never realized the benefit of a sub would be this big.

The AE Speakers only have one set of binding post for input, I fail to see how the op is converting the 4 speaker wire terminals from his amp into the speaker. Y Connectors can't cut it surely.

Just thought I'd cover all the basics again, I wasn't aware that you can put a line level signal through two amp stages. Speaker wires at the back of the amp might be touching each other, hard to stuff speaker wire into those receptacles.

Let's go through all of this from the beginning. Your setup is as follows: Rega > Behringer > Yamaha > AudioEngine Speakers Because AE speakers are powered, you don't need to connect via Yamaha. I'm assuming you got the P1 and not the P1 Plus, in which case I'd advise that you plug the Rega...

I'd check that apart from all the cartridge wires being where they are, that they are in contact with the pins, make sure they aren't loose.

Ok, that's kind of my point, I'm not goint to drown out my mid or tweets with the sub, and if I just need to crank the TZERO a bit higher than that T5, I would. PS. Also looking at the SVS SB-1000

First, let me just say that I'm not a bass junkie. Having said that I recently connected a subwoofer from my hometheater system into my stereo system and wow, it sounded good. My system comprises a Rega Brio feeding into a pair of Kef Q350. The Q350 are warm with plenty of bass. Now on to the...

If you can, always off. Most engineers don't consider a grille when designing and tuning the sound of the speakers.

Have you considered a subwoofer?

Greetings Just wanted your opinion on CD players with a headphone output. Coming from the turntable realm, I know that isn't really ideal. Are CD players the exception? I'm assuming that the headphone jack is there because the CD player has an amplifier in it, hoping to learn more.
