[QUOTE="sumone, post: 1521999, member: 551481"] I suggest you buy a cheap 5 to 10 dollar meter...with most electrical troubleshooting, it's a necessity. Instead of a home receiver, you could try grabbing an RCA to 1/8" (minijack) adapter: [URL="http://www.audiogear.com/cgi-bin/shopper.cgi?key=Adpt-2RcfMsf&preadd=action"][IMG]http://www.audiogear.com/Resources/~AdptRfY[/IMG][/URL] ...and plug some headphones into it. I think the volume out the headphones will extremely low, if audible at all, ... so in that case you could grab the adapter with a male minijack: [IMG]http://www.audiogear.com/Resources/AdptMnito2RcaF.jpg[/IMG] ...and if you have some portable device (cd-player, laptop/computer, headphone-amp) with a line in that amps up the signal, that would suffice. But buying a DMM would be the most practical method. [/QUOTE]
