But I don't see any poor connections, I don't see any obvious errors in wiring that would cause noise. I see a big mess of wires that look intimidating and sloppy - a mess that I could make look fine with about 10 minutes, a bunch of wire ties and a side cutter, and some adhesive foam sheet and a pair of scissors. I suspect that the wiring wasn't originally messy, that they probably kept changing things and changing things trying to get the noise out and that was part of it.

So I guess I'm saying you can bag on these guys all you want, but I don't see any smoking guns about your noise. In FACT, it kind of looks like there are some unused component power connectors in there - so unless you removed something, I think that this guy probably went somewhere and said to them, "Pull my gear out and make it work, but don't spend too much time on it".

I can come down there and get rid of your noise if you want : ) Wasn't planning to visit SF area soon but I could make a special trip - I have friends down there. BTW, Shaka, did you used to be with the SFPD? I knew a guy that had that nickname...
