Hey all,
It's been a VERY long time since I last visited head-fi. I have a xin supermini 3 amp that I haven't used in ages since it produces a lot of noise and, unless I squeeze the input and output cables towards each other while music is playing, it seems to be picking up a talk radio signal of some sort. This started years back when I tripped over a cable and one of the cables was wrenched out of the amp very fast.
I'm guessing that there's a grounding mechanism that's out. I'll post an image of the inside of the amp when I get home later. Does anyone have a diagram of the amp, or know where the ground would be? I have a soldering iron, I just need to know what needs doing.
Thanks,
Jack
