I have a weird buzz issue; can you help me solve the problem?
Ordered grounding plugs for RCA and XLR inputs. Should arrive in a few days. Will try this experiment as well as the one with the breaker and report back early next week. I’m expecting that none of these will solve the issue and that I’ll need to ... 
I have a weird buzz issue; can you help me solve the problem?
Thanks imhififan. Given that you have a dead quiet amp, and mine has been “noisy” in two separate homes, I have to think that despite it being quiet at manufacturer and audio store, something is likely amiss with the amp itself. I will try your ex... 
I have a weird buzz issue; can you help me solve the problem?
Ground cheater installed. No effect. Buzz still exists. To Jea48: definitely the buzz, not a hum. Should I now order and try input shorting plugs? If so, can someone send me a link for viable ones that are inexpensive? Will I need them for both RC...

Jea48: I will try ground cheater tomorrow. Mute button does not change anything either. 
I have a weird buzz issue; can you help me solve the problem?
Just tried the experiment; unplugged everything from the amp except speakers, ran OEM power cord directly into wall. As expected, the buzz still exists. It exists no matter which input is selected (Aux 1, Aux 2, etc) or what volume I have it set a... 
I have a weird buzz issue; can you help me solve the problem?
Did want to share some additional info:I originally started with balanced interconnects (had a Sony HAPZ-1ES at the time), and the buzz was present. As far as I can determine, the buzz has been with me since I got the integrated. I switched to sin... 
I have a weird buzz issue; can you help me solve the problem?
Thanks for all the suggestions. I was busy today walking the dog then doing some interior painting. I will dig into this tomorrow and give you some feedback. I agree, given that I have the same problem in a second house, it seems unlikely to be th... 
I have a weird buzz issue; can you help me solve the problem?
Roxy - it’s been so long since I took the int to CODA, I can’t remember the specifics of what was discussed. I do remember that: 1) no noise was heard on their dedicated circuit, 2) they said that it was very unusual for one of their products to e... 
I have a weird buzz issue; can you help me solve the problem?
I want to add the following:I measured the buzz with an app on my iphone held within a few inches of the speakers.I can hear the buzz from my listening position which is about 12 feet away from the speakers. 
Lumin vs Auralic
Hi Calgarian.......I'm debating between the Vega G2 and Lumin S1. Wondering, now that months have passed, how you are feeling about your Vega and what cabling you ended up with? Thanks. 
Why is streaming sounding better than my DAC??
Quick update. After doing some experimentation, seems like the issue is related to either my XLR cables or the XLR inputs on my Coda. Playing anything through RCA inputs is way better than the XLR. Waiting to borrow a friend's XLR cable to figure ... 
Why is streaming sounding better than my DAC??
Hi Steve - I'm comparing my Airport Express plugged directly into my Coda integrated with the following two signal paths:1) HD>Auraliti>Ayre>Coda2) Macbook>Ayre>CodaI did use iTunes to encode my CD's, but then used Max to encode the... 
Why is streaming sounding better than my DAC??
Don't have access to another DAC. The DAC is relatively new (less than a year) and is current model. It seems to be functioning properly from what I can tell (e.g., switches sample rates, plays all music thrown at it, etc). What type of malfunctio... 
Speaker hum problem - need help
After much delay, I finally got my problem resolved.....and quite nicely!Doug Dale, the owner of Coda, had been severely injured many months ago and has been off work until last week. Much of the delay that I experienced was due to Doug's absence....
