ATI AT6007 amplifier hum

Do you have hum just coming from the amp or do you hear it in the speakers? I have 2 lexicon RX-7s which I think are similar to the ATI. One hums a bit but it’s in a rack in a closet and speakers are dead silent. Like you they are on dedicated 20 amp lines with shunyata viper cables. I have never chased the hum but now I’m intrigued if something in the chain is causing it. I did have DC offset coming through two Fathom f212v2 subs from my plasma and tivo mini. I got a $15 screw on for th tivo mini which took it down 50% Andy then still needed an emotiva CMX-2 for the subs to take it all out. That is 15 amp though. I do have two furman P 8 Pro C units for sale on Pittsburgh craigslist and would be happy to post and sell them on here if you have any interest if that could help you out. They are one of the few 20 amp items I could locate that weren’t $$$$. |
If you get hum from more than one component/brand, there's every chance of finding a solution to the problem. In your case, with the silent-running Pass, I'm not so sure that these bandaids (e.g. DC blocker) will make any difference. There are lots of threads of this sort. I myself have been through this wringer (and I ended up buying different amps). I wish you luck and success but be prepared for no easy fix. |
If the hum is coming directly from the power transformer in the amp itself then its caused by DC offset. Other current draws on the circuit can sometimes cause this, in which case you may be able to eliminate the hum by turning different things off until you find the offender. Otherwise its a fairly cheap fix, search for DC offset eliminator, or maybe someone will chime in with the answer. |
