Failed Analog inputs on Marantz SR7015

Seriously, I have no life.
I doubt that is the problem, as it still hummed when muted and the hum was independent of volume setting. This behaved nothing like a grounding problem. It was also time and heat related to an extent.

The fact is that Masimo drove Sound United on the rocks and left it in a shambolic state.
I have seen loose/bad contact at grounding screws many times over the decades. That can rear its ugly head in very odd places.

Yes, we know that Masimo damaged those brands, but let's move on from that since the company has been sold and he's out of the picture. OTOH, I recently found put that the new head is the same pinhead who sold Jamo when he worked as the head at Klipsch and he did absolutely nothing good for Jamo- they were the #1 selling brand in Europe at the time and IMO, Klipsch bought the company because they (Jamo) already had CE sertification, Klipsch didn't and the purchase eliminated the process/expense of becoming certified. Now, Jamo has been sold again, this time to a GD Chinese buyer, and they only have one dealer in the US, according to the Jamo dealer finder.

The number of companies that have been destroyed via vanity purchases and MBAs in the last 40 years is absolutely disgusting.
