TV gives me a headache when its on; any suggestions?


i'd like to have shows on in the background, but i find if the bugger is playing, my playback suffers (stage compression by way of higher noise floor) and i get a headache.

apartment dweller, btw.

just fyi everyone.

i've a new apartment, and the tv and stereo (and several other lights, incl fluorescents and fans / dimmer switches) are all on the same breaker (15a). 
the tv had an iso-tranny (1kva) but that clearly wasn't enough.

things improved markedly when i ran the tv, through the tranny, into a diff breaker. 

(never liked trannys in series w/ the AC to the stereo). 

might try some caps across the +/- for duplexes on the same breaker. more to come. 
95% of the time i watch tv its for sports and i dont need sound for that...ergo the tv & stereo at the same time.

IME of late, moving the TV et al to a diff circuit breaker has made a startling improvement. YMMV
