Please help with Spectron Musician Issue.
Samhar and Elizabeth --Thank you for your responses. They are very comforting.I guess I have another question, then: Given the situation, how do I go about convincing them to replace the channel or the entire unit? What leverage do I have?I should...

Victor - Wow! That would be great, as I already appreciate the sound, though I do observe a difference from Redbook playback. (I needed to do this setup on a budget.)Can't wait!Rob 
Bo Diddley - Rest in Peace

Maddening HUMMMM
I was going to suggest the TV as well. Try unplugging it - not just turning it off - to see if that helps. Also, do you have any battery backup/power supplies for your computer? Knock those out as well.When you moved, did you move the system close... 
Buzz/hum from Spectron Musician II amplifier.
The DH Labs speaker cables are remote sense. I worked with DH to get the right configuration on the Neutrik connectors. 
Buzz/hum from Spectron Musician II amplifier.
