The wall wart and/or AC power connections have nothing to do with it.
The problem is that the amp is placing no load on the input when it's
not selected, and this allows SB3's output to drift away from 0V. Then
later, when the connection is established, there is a thump while this
capacitor charges back to the correct bias.

You can fix it by attaching some high-value (100K) resistor each of the
RCA signal lines. These could be connected inside the sb3, inside the
amp, or perhaps on the cables.

Maybe we should have included these resistors on our end, but it seemed
to be industry practice not to. It is extremely unusual to have an
amp/receiver that does not have them.
