This may be the second similar message, but I'm not sure if the first went through.
I'm installing a stereo in the basement and have two speakers that require 60 feet of 12 gauge wire. When I turn the sound up, the stereo shuts off. I thought I would only get a bit of delay at worst. The speaker wire is also in close proximity to some electric wires at some points. I have tested the speakers to the receiver using shorter wires and they sound great. I have also used a different receiver and it also cuts off. Is the problem the length of speaker wire? Could there be a break in the lines? Any thought or solutions. Please help.
