Is it better to position a step up transformer near the phonostage or near the turntable to prevent issues with hum?
Best to keep anything with a strong magnetic field as far away from your TT and phono stage as possible.
step up transformer noise
I purchased an amp from Europe that needs 240v [ I am on north American voltage].. I bought a step up/step down transformer to equalize the voltage. it works, but the transformer produces noise through the speakers, even when the amp is turned off. the transformer I bought was $60.. do I need one specific for audio applications? any suggestions?thanks for any help, dan
