I am in the process of building my false wall and built in speakers. The other day I needed to thread the right speaker cable through a small gap so twisted the + and - cable ends together to make them fit. Unfortunately, I completely forgot and powered my Denon 2313 back on. When I realised there was no sound coming from right speaker I reconnected but now it crackles and has high distortion.
Im guessing I have goosed it. I’ve tried other speakers and they all sound the same so it is definitely the amp.
I don’t use the centre channel (phantom centre mode). Is there a way to reassign the channel? If not I presume it is just the amp stage that has gone bad. Could I simply connect a power amp such as the Behringer A800 and restore the sound?
I posted this on Avforums where I received 1 reply suggesting I have ruined the windings of the out put transformer. Would this sound about right and would connecting pre outs to the A800 bypass this to resolve the issue.
