    Hi Y'all! Audio newbie here

    How y'all doin? I'm kinda new to the audio equipment world, and setting stuff up for a SERIOUS duty shop audio system (Harbinger HA120 mixer, two Phonic S710 speakers) to blast sound in my mancave while I turn wrenches. Because hey, why go light duty when you can go absolutely, totally and utterly OVERKILL?

    Anyways, I've got stuff I'm going to be studying learning, and asking about here as I go. Right now I've got a small issue with my mixer that is driving me effing nuts, and I'm not sure how to diagnose/repair, but I like fixing stuff, being a mechanic by trade.

    Pretty much because I wanted something very heavy duty, plus I'm into the whole setup for less than $100. I have a friend that was selling his old stuff off, and the price is right.
