bigrfish Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Well reading the first page of this thread I was going to advise you get the preamp tested and rebuilt... but I see on the second page you beat me to it. Good for you! These things can be a booger. I had issues basically b/c I had components hooked up to two main circuits in one room and there was a ground difference. Space is limited and I had to live with what I had. I wound up using some pro sound isolation transformers made by ART, some good automotive-type isolation filters that had stereo RCA pigtails for inline placement, and one other interesting little thing, a ferrite-core collar noise supressor that snaps around a wire, and used them on all the power cords for all the stereo components AND the TV and a halogen lamp. I got things to quiet down, but it was a bit of trouble to do so. The Rane company has excellent tutorials on connections and wires and terminals on their website that helped me quite a bit. I got my Hafler DH101 preamp to the shop first then all this other stuff transpired. Congrats on fixing it!! Chuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
