So I was just asked by a colleague in the office to have a look at the system that we have in a loft that we use for business meetings and rent out via AirBnB when we don't need it. It is a full 5.1 Parasound System, I believe they spent around 20K€ or so on everything 4-5 years ago.
So, there was a huge echo in the sound which I attributed to a setting, but after hours of testing it still sounded shit. So I just went out and bought every single cable to try with new cables, and turns out it was a minijack to RCA cable. I actually went and connected the old cable to a small Yamaha system in one of the upstairs bedrooms, and yes, the same kind of hideous echo could be heard.
It's a 1.5m long cable without any external damage... I am a bit baffled, is this frequent, and what could be the actual reason causing the cable to introduce this kind of problem?
