Amp n speakers problem

Rimm3r · 28 Oct 2002 at 16:56

I have the mission 700's and the cambridge audio A1 mk3 amp and when i turn the amp up near half way i get crackleing !

How can i stop this and whats causeing it ? im guessing its my crappy bannana plugs because when i re wire them it makes it better

Also if i was to get a new amp for these speakers what do you think i should get?

Thanks

whats your speaker cables...

Cat5 cables, but it happend before i had these

what interconnects you using.

if you mean banna plugs then im useing cheap plasticy ones from richer sounds

Thanks m8

The speakers are new.. and it happend in my last ones as well so its not them!

How much will a service cost and where can i get it done?

This might actually be the case because they all have to go down the same route as im at a quite small corner computer desk :/
i'll see what i can do now tbh

ive got some lyeing around some where.. but i allways sort out all my cables, then i go to a lan (at least once a month) and they all get in a mess again :/

Every time i go to a lan it results in my whole room getting in a huge mess some how..

Ok ive rewired all the cables without bannanan plugs and ive crossed all the cables that are crossing other cables at a right angle its working fine now untill you get near to 12 o clock, so thanks for all the help, and i hope this lasts!
