HELP.. power problems


So since I moved I've noticed I have some major power issues with my audio gear.. anytime my dishwasher changes cycles, or my refrigerator kicks on or I turn a light off specifically I get a loud pop..the only filter I have was something laying around that was designed for copier machines from years ago.. and it didnt help even a little.. What can I do to solve this thats not crazy expensive??

Well.. after reading all of this.. a few comments.. one, my refrigerator does it.. so its not switches only.. I seriously doubt the outlet on the frig is the problem but will still consider replacing it.. the outlets I installed for my "system" are higher quality.. not builders grade.. I did a simple polarity and ground test and it passed.

I agree with the statement about "dedicated" breakers.. all you are doing is putting physical wire distance from other "stuff".. My dishwasher is very very close to my system (dont ask).. but its on a separate breaker... it creates such loud popping when it flips its internal switches I simply cannot use it with the amplifier on as Im afraid I'll lose a speaker.

All of these items are of course in the USA 120v.

I have no clue how to solve this other than either a large capacitor like a "power capacitor" or an isolation transformer which could be pretty darn expensive and be a waste of energy. Not that my class A amplifier isnt already making environmentalists wake up in a cold sweat everywhere..

I however, must solve this at some point because my equipment is too expensive to allow it to continue.

My thought is this though.. the wire I am using may be physically too close to another wire for a long distance.. which could be causing some sort of EM noise on the line.. I will run an extension cord to the system from another outlet on another breaker and see what gives...

Hire a good commercial/industrial service electrician to check out the problem. Show him my check list, previous post.

Will do I think because Im at a loss now.. I tried an extension cord to the back of the house and same problem.. What weird is even low voltage lights when turned on and sometimes off cause a pop... something is amiss.
