Re: New(?) twist on ground loop hum/digital cable

Sorry to hear that. FWIW, my experience;
My cable TV is digital with digital converter. With SS amp, I did not notice the ground loop hum(buzz), but when I changed to tube power amp (cj), it emerged. I tried MAGIC, and MANY other isolation products in my system, but the conclusion is that cheapter plug on the amp plug works the best. Some devices, like you experienced, hurt some channels, but cheater plug never does that. I wish I could deal with it without lifting ground, but so far even in this dry weather in NY no zap or electrocution. Also, my speaker is pretty inefficient (87db) and it may be helping a lot.
