Nakamichi Pa-7 Nakamichi CA-5 Noise Problem Input


Hi,
I have a Nakamichi PA-7 with a Nakamichi CA-5 pre amp. I have had it since new and have never been able to input anything TV related through the pre amp without a very prominent line noise - the kind that lets you know you're doing something that you're not supposed to.
Does anyone know why I can't input, for example, my Cox digital music channels through my system?

You may be having a ground-loop caused by your cable. You can get an isolation transformer for it for a few bucks ($5 or $10) that will isolate the cable ground from the system but let the signal get through. Your tv service man can let in on the details.
