| DC Offset Blocker/Killer - where to buy in the USA @ tomiiv30 OP How about an update on your electrical. Did the electrician come out and check for possible electrical problems in your home? Possibly loose and or corroded wire connections in the electrical service panel?Have you spoken to any one... | |
| DC Offset Blocker/Killer - where to buy in the USA @ nyev See page #17. It appears the power transformer is an EI type. EI type power transformers as a rule are not affected by DC offset on the AC mainshttps://www.manualslib.com/manual/1460643/Mcintosh-Mc462.html?page=17#manual Question is why wo... | |
| DC Offset Blocker/Killer - where to buy in the USA Thanks Al, (almarg) for the response. The additional difference of 1.577 - 1.41 = 0.167 VDC is probably accounted for by a combination of the resistances of the connections to the several intervening outlets in the room with the 1.577, and impreci... | |

I will have to go back this afternoon, maybe tomorrow morning, and Check for the Line, Leg, (in the electrical panel) that each of the branch circuits are fed from. (For tests 2, 3, and 4)... | |
| DC Offset Blocker/Killer - where to buy in the USA Here are the DC offset measurements using a low pass filter. (DMM probes across capacitor leads)I used a 1875 watt hair dryer to create the DC offset on the AC mains. Test # 1Dedicated Audio room. Low pass filter plugged into dedicated audio outle... | |
| Are ferrites effective for cabling? wisciman99 OP65 posts01-14-2019 10:16am I have a very minute amount of hiss coming from the speakers (I have to put my ear almost literally on the speaker grills to hear it)The hiss you are hearing is probably just the electronic components ins... | |
| DC Offset Blocker/Killer - where to buy in the USA @ tomiiv30 OPI decided to deleted my previous post because I didn’t think it was right for me to instruct/dictate how the electrician, you hired, should go about trouble shooting for possible problems on the electrical service and or wiring of yo... | |

| DC Offset Blocker/Killer - where to buy in the USA Al, (almarg)Thanks! 10 to 15 seconds..... I would have missed that for sure. What do you think about using a 22uF value for the capacitor? I chose the 22uF cap because that is what Eva (DIY member) said to use in her post. Elliott Sound Products r... | |
| DC Offset Blocker/Killer - where to buy in the USA @ tomiiv30 OP and @ gdnrbob I ordered the resistor and capacitor over the internet yesterday to build the simple low-pass filter. Hopefully I will have them in about a week. 100K 1 watt resistorhttps://www.ebay.com/itm/5-pack-1-watt-5-carbon-film... | |
| DC Offset Blocker/Killer - where to buy in the USA gdnrbob2,190 posts01-07-2019 1:21pm@jea48 ,Would you recommend getting a DC blocker for every system?I know not all lines have DC, but just as a precaution?Bob No, I wouldn’t. There is not any need for a blocker unless you have DC offset on the ... | |

| DC Offset Blocker/Killer - where to buy in the USA erik_squires4,643 posts01-06-2019 11:54amAgreed. If you measure that little, you need to take the amp back and prove it there. Best,E erik, keep this just between the two of us. Chuck is just plain ignorant when it comes to how to measure for DC... |
