Audience Au24 - Did any one have problems....?


Did any of you Au24 interconnects owners have any problems with your cables. Like cables stopped working? Mine (the right IC stopped working) and I believe a contact failure of some sort in the cable. Did any one experienced that before?

thx

Funny that you mentioned that. I once owned a one meter pair of the Au24s. I ran them from my cd player to my preamp. On several occasions, I too failed to get sound through one channel. What I found was that the plugs were not making proper contact. Each time, I had to pull them out and re-insert them, and then things were fine. Sounds like you might be having the same difficulty. Try re-inserting them firmly. Good luck.
Never had a problem with Audience either.

If you are sure the problem is the cable and if it persists I would consider shipping it to Audience. I am sure they will do a good job repairing/replacing the cable without much extra costs.
I have had problems with 2 separate pairs of AU24 RCA ICs. Developed noise on one channel that I isolated to one cable -- in 2 differenct pairs. Audience was VERY helpful. I sent cables back to them to be checked, with understanding that ICs might come back a bit shorter. My 1meter ICs came back at .75meter. I don't know if the stiffness has something to do with it. All in all a great cable from a company that stands behind its product.
I don't know about your particular problem but I will confirm that Audience went above and beyond to solve my problem.
