Gmkowal(or anyone else...) do you know of any other fixes for this problem. I have recently gotten some new equipment(interconnect/power cords/CD player), and encountered the problem. No flourescent lights. Just the interconnects picking up the 60 Hz AC hum from passing by a power cord. I know the best solution is to rearrange the equipment to minimize this. I am not jumping for joy to do this, as my current arrangement is good(by that I mean my girlfriend wants it this way...). Temporarily, I have found that pulling my interconnects as far from the offending power cord as is possible, mitigates the problem to a large extent. But NOT completely. But, I am wondering if there are any other solutions out there. Never experienced these gremlins before. But, I guess that's life. Thanks to all in advance.
