Hi--Thanks for all your great advice. To followup: 1. I ordered and installed the Madrigal M.A.G.I.C. and it eliminted the power hum. 2. I had the cable company come out and check my groud. Seems as though when the @home cable guys installed my internet cable they didn't re-ground or else changed a ground or a lead or something. The regualar cable guy did something (at least he told my wife he did) to eliminate the hum. 3. Now I am left with a speaker hiss in the system. Just enough to be noticeable at low levels. I'm investigatin power conditioner and balancers and I'm really confused: Bybee Power Conditioners and Quantum line filter; CinePro Power 20, Tice Power Block III, Richard Gray The Power Company, PS Audio. I have a Monster MTS 2000, but it's not doing the full job. What way to go? Any ideas or your experience would be appreciated. Thanks
Cable tv induced power hum
I have a Proceed AVP HT processor connecting EAD Powermaster 2000 amp, CD,MSB Link DAC, DVD, VCR, Phono, FM, Subs, & Cable, power connected thru Monster HTS 2000. If I switch Amp direct to wall outlet I have a huge hum. Thru Monster powerconditoner it quites down, but is still present. If I disconnect cable from VCR or TV & it goes away and am left with slight speaker hiss. How can I remove hum from my system? Do I ground cable, and if so how? I have no converter box. I have @home internet connection thru cable. Should I try some technique with sources other than Cable TV lead? Should I get another power conditioner or another type power conditioner to eliminate the hum? Thanks in advance for any assistance you can give. Larry Norton
