TV gives me a headache when its on; any suggestions?


i'd like to have shows on in the background, but i find if the bugger is playing, my playback suffers (stage compression by way of higher noise floor) and i get a headache.

save money on cable bill. 
i do same
fake nooz, fake sports and fake movies dump it and listen to some muzik
I do the same, but it is a sign of addition. I still use roof antena - more channels, would be like giving drugs to an addict.

My TV does not change anything, but I have it plugged into different outlet of the Furman Elite 20PFi conditioner. Try different outlet for TV, even with extension cord when it is far, because it might end up on the different supply phase (to isolate the problem). Check if your ICs or speaker cables don’t follow power cables. Make them cross each other at 90 deg, if you cannot keep them apart. Are your ICs shielded?
Reading this post reminded me of Jeff Foxworthy...
