I looked over your reply, tried it anyway, and of course failed. ahh me. Always needing to try things for myself. Lesson learned.

On the bright side I modded, trimmed, and tested a new mobo in around 2 hrs now knowing how to do things safely.

Life.

anyways, finally got to working on my wii again. Got a surprisingly good headphone amp for $20. Tested it and it worked (almost perfectly). Hooked it up to my wii (AV pins, preamp powered by 7v). Incredible static.

I'm using shielded wire from some charger (the shield threads also act as the GND, on another amp adding another ground from a different location changed nothing) for L and R. Any Ideas on what I can do to fix this? Could it be the underpowered preamp? PTH noise?

Not sure how much it'll help, but don't power the preamp and just grab L and R from before the preamp.
