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

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.)

Thanks all for your input...problem solved.
And special thanks to Mg123!!! I fixed it with a spare piece (used one side) of 16ga. lampcord. Just attached one end to the ground screw, of the 2-way splitter that I was using, to send the cable signal to the VHS and the HDTV. Then the other to the wall socket, and ...TAAA DAAAHHH, NO HUM!!!! at NO COST and just a couple of minutes!
Thanks again to all for your suggestions!
Happy listening.

I had the same problem. I bought a Monster Cable HTS20000 and ran the cable into the power center then to the TV. This will take care of the hum and also protect your equipment from electrical surge.It comes with a $1000,000 connected equipment warranty. Good Luck! Joe

You can take off one of those zero's after the 1 for the warranty on the Monster Cable Power Center. Sorry about that! Joe
