Sparks??

What would ever cause speaker leads to spark of they touched? I know that would casue a short and possiblt trip a protcetion circuit in the amp but sparks from speaker leads???

It's still electricity, and even a 1 1/2 volt "D" cell battery will spark if shorted out. I just wouldn't put your speaker leads in your bathtub while taking a bath to test this though.......

Upon further investigation..this amp has probs. If i touch the right rear speaker output leads i get a shock straight up my arm Guess its headed for repairs

Holy smokes, yes! Immediately unplug this unit, and every unit it's connected to and remove the amplifier from your system! If you're getting a shock, something's seriously not right, and while it's possible it's not dangerous, believe me you do not want to take that chance!
