    Cross talk?

    I just hooked up my new 1080 amp and pre 1070. The very first time i turned it on and turned up the volumn there was nothing....i couldn't figure it out. I checked the cables but no sound... i turned it up about half way and notice a bit of sound then i turned it up more and there was more sound (yes the cd player was on and running track 1) HHmmmm me thinks this is strange.
    I checked the cables and everything looked cool.

    Aaaaagghhhh, the pre amp was on phono not cd, problem solved.... BUT WHY WAS I HEARING SOUND WHEN I TURNED IT UP ON PHONO??????. There are no cables in phono, the cd player and tuner is the only thing hooked up?> This has to be cross talk but in a system of this caliber?

    Has one else experienced this?

    Go give it a try and let me know
    thanks

      Perfectly normal. All the inputs share a common ground and it will pick up another input if nothing is playing. It's actually the norm on most equipment.

      Thanks,

          Yes, very normal...

          Your impressions on your new stereo setup? What speakers do you use it with?

              Really?
              i would have thought that this would be seperated?
              I'll have to test it out on my denon receiver.

                  Even if you don't experience it on the Denon, it's not a sign of better/worse. It's just what hapens when you share grounds. I would imagine it would be even worse on a phono input considering it's additional pre-amp stage.

                  As a general rule, any problem that starts off with "If I turn it up really loud when I'm not listening to anything," isn't really a problem..

                          Good to hear!
                          My new set up includes B&W 804S :drool:, Rotel RB-1080 amp, RC-1070 pre and RT-1080 tuner, all of which are just flipping amazing. arty:

                          I have AudioQuest type 6 biwire cables and not sure if they are worth the $300 i spent. I realize that everything is still realllly new but the difference in sound is fairly minimal. There are lots of other things i could buy with that money

                              Thoughts on zip ties, and cables
                              by Bob Santos
                              My HT is down for the next week while I wait for my new Pre/Pro. I am going to take advantage of
                              the down time to tidy up the mess behind my system. I think I read a whileback that it is not a good idea to zip tie cables together. I think something about getting cross talk between the cables....

                              Phono stage? What's that??
                              by nicholtl
                              Hey all, so I've been doing some research and getting interested in adding a turntable to my system. Lately, I've been looking at the VPI Scout with JMW 9 arm, which is usually sold as a package on several online sites like audioclassics or acousticsounds. Some of you guys might know of it from a...

                              Halo JC 3 -- a step up from previous phono preamps in my system
                              by Burke Strickland
                              A while back on this forum in a discussion about the Halo JC 1 power amps & JC 2 BP preamp that I am enjoying in my 2 channel music system, Chris D predicted that the next hi-fi component I would buy is the JC 3 phono preamp. At the time I wasn’t sure that was in the cards. I recognized its...

                              Long Phono Cables Question
                              by Howard Schneck
                              I have a question about using long phono cables with my Rotel Rx-1052 receiver. My receiver is on one floor and my turntable and good speakers on another floor. I control via a remote IR Receiver. I have a 50 ft shielded audio cable between the Rx-1052 and turntable.

                              Besides a possibly...
