   Paradigm didn't supply schematics to these when I worked for a dealer   
   but a friend asked me to see if I could fix his. I wasn't very   
   optimistic but I said OK.  There was a slight hum when it was turned   
   on but there was no output of the input signal.  If the shield of the   
   rca cable was touched, the hum increased slightly.  I thought the   
   input rca jacks looked familiar from a repair I did years ago where   
   there was no continuity from the shield to solder tab..  Some how the   
   plate the shield of the rca jacks connect to separates from the solder   
   tab.  Without destroying the jack assy., it is impossible to see what   
   breaks.  Running a wire from the shield plate to the connection   
   underneath the circuit board repaired the amp.  Chuck
