Help Cable is causing a Buzz/Hum in HomeTheatre Amp.

Purchase two adapters one from 75 ohms to 300 and another to convert it back to 75. By placing them back to back there your cable comes out of the wall you will eliminate your problem.You can purchase the adapters at a local Radio Shack for a few bucks a piece.

Please refer to my archived threads on this subject; there are two easy solutions both of which have been applied successfully by members here.

You may just have a bad cable, or a cable not grounded properly for your intended use. Try another cable to see. Has happened to me.

xantech makes a piece called the ground breaker; model 634-00.it is about $7. this eliminates hum 99% of time;it has female f pin connectors on both ends.this can be a common problem-we get several calls a week on this ;and the xantech has had great success eliminating the hum.

If you must buy something from the store, use the $7 solution mentioned above. This is NOT a $100 problem!!! I just took a wire with an aligator clip on one end clipping it to the "shield" on the tv cable and connecting the other end to my power source ground (for me this is the case of my PS Audio power plant, but you can connect it to the ground on your wall socket if you don't have a power device.)
