Jamma cabinet how do i hook up stereo sound?
TrAb:
Somebody on another forum mentioned that jamma boards have built in amps and this may just be a really small amp to help out a little.

Ok this is kinda weird, i had it plugged up in another room while working on it. Anyways i noticed whenever i touched any metal on it i would get a very light shock. :dunno ... So i looked everywhere trying to find something not wired right, i said screw it and moved it into my room. All the metal shocking stopped, why would this be? Something is weird about that outlet in the other room i guess...

There is clearly a short somewhere and your cab isn't grounded properly. The electrons found you a more effective route to ground in the old location, but things may be different in the new location. It is unlikely the plug at issue, unless it lacks a ground pin which is fairly common I guess (!).

Lol i tried the plug again last night with my 360 hooked up to it, and the little plastic chrome ring around the hard drive shocked me. WTF lol.. Guess im not plugging anything else into that one...

Pull the outlet cover and see if it's properly grounded in the wall.
