| HUM dilemma Can anyone solve This one? Thanks bob. I'll check e-mail and try your suggestions. As for the other suggestions, nothing has quite helped yet. I'll let you know when I have time to disconnect the sources to the preamp and disconnect all the inputs to the amps and check it a... | |
| HUM dilemma Can anyone solve This one? Hmmm.. Some responses make me wonder if everyone has read what I wrote above. I moved everything to a dedicated circuit by a high grade extension cord to a different outlet, on a different circuit, one without dimmers or even light switches! The t... | |
| HUM dilemma Can anyone solve This one? I don't have a dedicated circuit, and was going to try a cheater plug to see if it works. Why do people advise against it? The polarity checks as normal with the three pronged polarity checker. No reverse, adequate ground. Am I guessing that cheat... | |
| HUM dilemma Can anyone solve This one? Well, tried disconnecting things in sequence like suggested above, but this didn't work. I can't figure out if this is RF interference or a ground loop. The dimming effect on the tone of the hum (it changes with the degree of dimming) suggests to ... | |
| Length- Speaker wire/interconnect ?s Thanks all, I'm getting the sense that shorter speaker wire is most desirable. But when we talk about interconnects, I guess all I really need to lengthen is the connect from my preamp to my amp. Everything else can stay close to the preamp. For n... | |

| Most important link: Source? Pre-amp?or? should plenty of $$ be spent on the preamp in a home theater system? up to $4-6k can be spent just to produce an adequate sound stage and accurate DSP for presentation! I'm struggling with the same cost-splitting decisions now. I've got $10k to sp... | |
| Dedicated stereo to HT--advice? Just can't agree Evelyn (Sharp 2451). So many people say you should be able to get stuff you just can't find. Show me where you can find a Lexicon that does AC-3, DD, THX and DTS for $800! Those units run $4k-$6k new and I've not seen a single one... | |
