Be methodical about diagnosing this.
1. Plug the SB3 into a different line level input on the Marantz. (Anything other than the phono input will do, eg the tape input). Static gone? Fault is the particular input on the Marantz. Otherwise... 2. Try a different RCA cable to connect the SB3 to the Marantz. Static gone? Fault is in the cable. Otherwise... 3. Try a different source component (eg. CD player, DVD player, etc) using the Monster Cable into the same input of the Marantz. Static gone? Fault is in the SB3. Otherwise... 4. Fault is in the Marantz.
