I strongly believe that any one inch long bridge is going to be 'sufficient' I could believe that the OP did more by disconnecting, moving and reconnecting the bridge than by changing the wire, or changing the strap to a wire. Electrical currents (signals, etc.) are passed only on the surface of the conductor. Electrons repel each other so they do _not_ flow thru the center. (Serious high current wiring is often hollow). The hunk of metal bridging the connectors on my Sonus Fabers look like they could carry 40 amps, no problem. -- Pat http://www.pfarrell.com/music/slimserver/slimsoftware.html _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
