| Amplifier Hum - A Problem Solved Is this enough DC voltage to create a hum in my amp/speakers?Danhirth04-12-10: DanhirthDanhirth,If you are hearing a hum through the speakers, jmho, the hum is not caused by DC offset voltage on the ac mains. The hum is more than likely a ground l... | |
| BSR turntable switch makes loud pop Rar1,Thanks for the conformation. Hooking the Ceramic cartridge up to a phono preamp would really amplify the signal from the cartridge I would think. Enough I would guess to pick up the arc from the power switch when switching it open. | |
| No sound from cdp. Try a different digital cable from the CDP to the DAC. If you do not have one just use an analog ic or a video coax cable. | |
| BSR turntable switch makes loud pop I had to steal the pre-amp away from my Stanton because the BSR's ceramic cartridge seems to require the special 470 ohm impedance setting.) Ceramic cartridge? If memory serves me right a ceramic cartridge does not need a phono preamp. You should ... | |

| Toasted Pre Stanwal, Ghostrider45,It seems I should not have mixed 220V with 110V in the same system.Gabriel_37 Gabriel_37 profile says he lives in the USA. I believe he has a 240V power receptacle outlet for the amp and a 120V power receptacle outlet for the... | |

| Amp to compliment Sonic Frontiers pre?? Actually the tube that was in there was an Amperex 6DJ8 A frame...not my cup of tea LOL!!03-28-10: SidewaysThough the pin-out may be the same for a 6DJ8 and a 12AT7 the two tubes are not interchangeable.......12AT76DJ8Are you sure the tube was a 6... | |
| Amp to compliment Sonic Frontiers pre?? Sideways,Several years ago I had the Sonic Frontiers SFL-1 in my system. The preamp mates well with an ARC tube amp.What make and year is the 12AT7 tube in the preamp?From the factory the preamp came with 2 tubes. One was a 12AT7A (Ei) and the oth... | |
| Upgrading wall outlets I just added two 20 amp circuits for my power amps using 10gauge with ground wire. I used Leviton 20A Heavy Duty Outlets.03-22-10: CoxhausCoxhaus,Is the supporting back strap of the Leviton receptacle made of steel? (Magnetic ferrous material). | |
| Upgrading wall outlets Coxhaus,If a 20 amp receptacle is used, (NEMA 5-20R), then a 20 amp breaker must be used. The minimum size copper wire would be #12 awg. If #10 awg copper wire is used the breaker still has to be a 20 amp.If a 15 amp duplex receptacle is used, (NE... | |
| 60 Hz Noise Reduction I reconnected the house cable with none of the devices connected, and then reconnected seperately to determine which device was the source. Unfortunately when any single device is connected the noise returns.When you get the Jensen iso transformer... | |
| 60 Hz Noise Reduction I'm assuming that if I connect the chassis to AC ground instead of earth ground it would cause the same EMI/RFI noise problem. or worse correct?03-15-10: Aweaver555 Equipment safety ground, ("U" shaped hole ground contact on the AC wall receptacle... |
