Does anyone use RCA shorting plugs on their pre-amp inputs or anywhere else?  Is this a bad idea for these components or do they help with EMI?
I've seen them used mostly on vintage equipment on the phono inputs but notice I dont see these so much any more.
Are they still used these days?  I have the AVA FET Valve Pre-amp

Thanks for any input!

Are you having EMI issues or just general audiophile nervosa?

[Bambudist]

Neither just curious.  Anything else to contribute?

It is ok to use shorting rca plugs on unused inputs, but not on the tape or line level outputs.

I doubt if they will make much difference.

Thanks Frank. I'm not having any issues, just curious as some folks were talking about this recently.
