over the other inputs
• The source itself has a hum
• The input wiring passes near AC mains
wiring
• Defect in the unbalanced wiring
• Determine if the source is defective
or wired incorrectly and correct
• Reroute the input wiring
• Balanced connection to the input
source
Hum in the output
• The source itself has a hum
• The input wiring passes near AC mains
wiring or wiring to lighting dimmers
• There is pickup of RFI (radio frequency
interferences) from TV transmissions. This
kind of interference sounds like power
line related buzz, but tends to change in
character every few seconds due to
changes in the video image.
• Determine if the source is defective
or wired incorrectly and correct
• Reroute the input wiring
• Try different cabling or grounding
techniques. Try to solve the problem
by using the 0.1 µF capacitor connected
to bypass the shield. Try different
routing of input and power cables.
• The source output is set too high and the
gain control of the amplifier is turned way
down to compensate.
• The source itself is distorted.
• Reduce the source output level and
increase the setting of the gain
control of the amplifier.
• Try a different source and/or have the
source repaired.
