I refuse to answer as it is very embarrassing. Embarassed

Naw just kidding. It is embarrassing though. I swear to god this gremlin has been messing with me for over a year. I thought it was odd that the problem followed 3 Lexicon processors (that should have been my first clue) I seriously thought perhaps my in wall speaker wire was picking magnetic inductance from a power line and frying an output amp. It happened on my DC-1, My DC-2 and then a MC-1...starting to get expensive right? I disconnected cables, reconnected took out amps replaced amps, used different interconnects, even bypassed in wall wiring all together. Problem literally would be there some days and gone the next. Some times sound would be there during a movie and gone by the end. Always in one front channel.

Got the oscope, still haven't used it. Took out my tone chaser, had output from all channels from the mc1. But no soumd front left. Finally decided to get a pen and map out every combination of wires through the Behringer 8024 and bypassing the 8024, thought I narrowed it down to a bad wire. Tried that wire again, reseated all connections and everything's working as it should. I think it's a bad wire. Don't I feel like a dumbass.

Thanks for all the help.
