Low buzzing through speaks

And thank you @russ69!. I know I’d still have plenty of volume to listen as loudly as my Maiden proofed ears can handle! I was asking if maybe I needed the 20db’s if the gain difference was that vast…

You know something @dpop ​​​​@russ69, I was just thinking about all of this and honestly if at the end of all of this my system is still possessed by this evil entity, you all turned this into an amazingly positive experience. Honestly. Regardless of outcome you have turned my shock and horror into a true positive experience. That will be my take away from this. So thank you, sincerely…😊👌🏻

@russ69 ​​​​@dpop just read this in the Titan owner manual:

The gain in each channel is the same among all balanced inputs and among all unbalanced inputs, but NOT the same among balanced and unbalanced inputs. Keep this in mind when level matching, if you are using a combination of both types of inputs.

So it would appear switching to RCS’s won’t make any difference, no?

RCA’s should say

@kingbr

You’re very welcome. I know how you feel about that. Once you heard it you cannot unhear it eventhough it’s only audible from inches away from the speaker’s tweeter 😁😁. What’s your speakers’ sensitivity? It’s even more audible through highly sensitive speakers (highly efficient speakers).

You don’t want want to use a ground lift XLR adapter or a 10db XLR attenuator, you don’t want to insert anything in the signal path as it would potentially degrade the signal purity thus will degrade and compromise the overall sound quality. Just leave it alone as is. Because you will be compromising the overall sonic fidelity (sound quality) while trying to fix or resolve something (faint buzz that’s only audible from couple inches away from your speaker’s tweeter) that isn’t even an issue to begin with.

Not all systems are dead quiet if you literally put your ear right up to the speaker due to various different AC induced environments in our homes. But it looks like you have the Shunyata AC power product and power cables in your setup. Shunyata makes great AC power products and power cables. I also use Shunyata AC power products and power cables in my setup at home but that faint buzz is still there when I use my Cary SA 200.2 ES power amp in the system, but then when I switch the amp back to the Classe amp the faint buzz goes away and is dead quiet. So, I know it’s the Cary SA 200,2 ES power amp (solid state) that’s causing that’s causing that faint buzz when I put my ear right up to the speaker (really close to the speaker). So, I just live with it since the Cary sounds better and more musical than my Classe Sigma Amp2 power amp. But I still have the Classe amp and decided to keep it as a back up amp (reserve). I mostly use the Cary amp since I like the way it sounds as it reminds me a bit of its tube amp counterpart since Cary Audio is well known for their tube gears. I have their SLP-05 vacuum tube linestage preamp in my setup and they make great combo. I only have stereo setup for listening to music only. I don’t do surround sound movies.

Trust me kingbr, just leave it as is and just relax and enjoy your music and movies.

LED light somewhere in the room, either a 5v or an LED of certain type bulb in traditional socket. Unplug it. See if that is it.
