Just got back from much needed vacation and just catching up on all the responses. The XLR cables are from Signal Cable and I spoke with the cable builder Frank and he assured me that the cables are wired correctly. Now of course I could switch to single ended cables (RCA) but I'd like to keep the XLR cables if possible. I'm going to try and lift pin 1 on the input side of one of the cables and see if that works. I'll keep everyone updated.
Ground Loop Hum with balanced XLR cables only
I've been working to track down a ground loop/hum coming from my speakers. I've got an Integra DHC-9.9 connected via XLR cables to a BAT VT-6200 amplifier. I spent hours trying all sorts of things to eliminate and finally I swapped out the XLR cables for regular RCA unbalanced cables and voila the hum was gone.
Any ideas why this would be?
Thanks,
