Help with system/ARC noise

Cdp under $ 1k which is great top to bottom
I had a Rega Planet back in the day and thought it was a really nice player for $800, saw one listed here for $250 at that price it's an absolute steal. And presumably later models, you mention saturn,are better but I have no direct experience. 
Synergistic Red Fuse ...
@charles1dad  thanks for getting back to me and one more question you say it takes a small 3amp slo blow but when I check small fuse sizes, I looked at both the Synergistic and Hifi Tuning Fuse ads and both list only a 3.15A in the small 5x20mm. I...

Synergistic Red Fuse ...

Synergistic Red Fuse ...
Well day whatever the day is with the new fuse day 7 maybe? Anyway the system sounds amazing,  better than ever to me I'm sure the fuse helps along with the six Amperex Bugle Boy 6DJ8's I rolled into my preamp. Plus the new RCA rectifier and trio ... 
Isolating Digital Noise, need help.
Is it possible to try a different outlet without the extension cord?

"so far there is no high-pitched noise when using the stock PC on the ARC. Perhaps the Audience PC is not a good design for a digital device?"Now that sounds decidedly odd just out of curiosity are you using a cheater plug with both the Audience ...

Gotcha so this noise from the ARC is new or have you heard it combined with the Atma preamp the whole time?  
Isolating Digital Noise, need help.
lowrider57 you're sure the ARC is the issue? Have you tested other sources just to be sure? And you mention using a cheater plug on the preamp, did you try the cheater before of after you started hearing this noise?
