345VAC!!!

69.255.0.182

I connected my VOM set on auto-range to the outer shell of the Foreplay's Output RCA Jack and the outer shell of the ST35's Input RCA Jack and measured 345VAC. I'm guessing that is bad.

I ran the same test between my Paramour and Foreplay and got 89VAC. Doesn't sound like that is healthy either.

Chassis Ground to Chassis Ground is 0V so that is probably good.

Where do I start?

        Signal ground is never connected to Chassis - dbishopbliss 17:41:40 04/18/08 (3)
        
        As a rule, yes. But, before you do, another question and something to check: - JC 18:49:34 04/19/08 (2)
