Hum X for CJ PV-10?

I have a ground loop hum with my CJ PV 10 that goes away with a cheater plug. I don't want to use it that way, and the hum really isn't bad enough to risk it. I'm thinking maybe the "Hum X" might be the answer (kind of pricey, though). My question is, does anyone know the output amps for this pre-amp? The Hum X can only accommodate a maximum of 6 amps.

Well, that's great info - but I need to know the output amps. The Hum X can only be used with a maximum of 6 amps output. I can't find that info regarding the CJ anywhere. Thanks for trying!

The Hum X can only be used with a maximum of 6 amps output.

The 6 amp rating of the Hum X is how much current can be drawn through the HUM X ... not the amount of output of the CJ to the amp

The maximum amount of current that will safely pass through the HUM X is 6 amps ... you have to find out how much current your CJ uses to operate

What you need to ask CJ is how many amps does it take to run pre ... or how many amps does the preamp draw .... if itÂ’s less than 6 amps the HUM X will work and pass enough current

Again the 6 amps HUM X is referring to is the maximum current it will safely pass not the output of the preamp to the amp
