| high frequency intermittent noise Seems like I have been in similar odds before. Just this weekend I ordered some parts for my turntable from KAB USA, another person with the identical name was ordering parts as well and our orders got combined which turned into an administration... | |
| high frequency intermittent noise @toddverrone I agree, I've listened to people on YouTube playing the sound of cell towers through their test tools, and it sounds like cell tower noise to me as well.What if the cell phone tower across the street is injecting noise into the elect... | |
| high frequency intermittent noise @jea48 This noise issue has been in my system for as long as I have used my system in my current apartment. So it was there before I swapped out my receptacle outlet. Keep in mind, this noise is just below the noise floor of my apartment, so you ... | |
| THE LITTLE BLACK BOX, 399.00 ABSOLUTLY NUTS If you were a small business with very limited resources (manufacturing all by hand) and could only produce X amount of products per year, and your product became very popular (demand increases exponentially), the only thing you can do is raise yo... | |
| high frequency intermittent noise @kosst_amojan My interconnects are all shielded, but they could be under-shielded. If I turn everything off in my system except for my amps, I can still hear the noise. So in that case we would look at the speaker cables, they are shielded too.... | |

| For tube sound, which is more important: preamp or power amp? Another reason to stay with 1 designer, they will make sure their components have synergy. | |
| For tube sound, which is more important: preamp or power amp? @toddverrone What kind of speakers are you using? | |
| high frequency intermittent noise If I listen carefully, I can hear the train go by underneath my building, There is a low frequency buildup when this occurs looking at a real time analyzer, and I can actually hear the subway cars on the rails, so today I am listening carefully i... | |
| high frequency intermittent noise I live in a neighborhood where we have the oldest electrical system in the city. A few years back, an underground power transformer blew up and caused quite a stir in the neighborhood - black smoke from the electrical fire coming out of a manhole... | |
| high frequency intermittent noise @willemj Very good distinction. I think the battery powered radio was a test to see if it was air born, which leads me to think it is not. So then it is in the power. I hope this is the case. I have a Furman P-2400 IT on order, I'm going to gi... | |
| For tube sound, which is more important: preamp or power amp? @willemj Good point, there are two prices a designer has to think about, the cost of manufacturing and the retail price of the product. |
