M. Campbell Deputy Gunslinger Registered: 12/14/06 Posts: 8	Though I am always a little scared buying audio gear from ebay, I have always had good luck. Until now... So I bought a Parasound HCA-855a and it sounds and works great out of the first two channels, but as soon as I connect to any of the other 3 channels there is a very obvious and loud hum. I have totally isolated the amp, connected several different speakers, different cables, etc with no luck - definitely something internal with the amp Any amp techs have any ideas? Mike

Is the hum coming from the speakers, or is it coming from inside the amp itself? _________________________ gonk HT Basics \| HDMI FAQ \| Pics \| Remote Files \| Art Show Reviews: Index \| 990 \| speakers \| BDP-93
