But when I unplug the input to the amp (with the output still connected to the preamp)......the hum disappearsI still think there is a possibility that the interconnects that go from the preamp to the amp my not be shielded enough for the new environment. Try a different pair (if you haven't already) between these two (amp and preamp) that may have better shielding, or a different design. Last resort (don't laugh), even some budget ones from Radio Shack, or even a big box store just temporarily to see if this can be the problem.
RFI from steel TV bracket?
Yesterday I installed a new TV on a steel wall-mounted extendable bracket between all my electronic components.
I now have a low hum/buzz from both speakers on all sources....even with the preamp on mute?
When I switch the preamp off.....the hum is still there.
The only way to remove the hum is to switch the amps off?
I tried grounding the steel bracket to the preamp and then the amps without success.
The previous TV was in the same location but sitting on the shelf.....not a steel wall bracket.
Any help would be dearly appreciated?
