Re: Do pre-out, main-in jumpers make a difference?

They surely do make a difference. This question has popped up many times on this forum and just about every that has replaced the jumpers with ICs has been pleased with the results. My only words of caution are to select an IC that is fairly flexible to avoid putting unneeded strain on the RCA jacks at the back of the amp. Other inmates have suggested eliminating the jumpers by wiring a bypass internally.
The AQ jumpers will probably work fine but if you've got a good pair of ICs not being used, try those before you spend money. Once you're certain that the ICs make a difference, then you can decide whether or not you want to go cable shopping.
