    Ground Loop Problem?

    Ok, I will try to keep this short and to the point. I recently bought a Bryston 3B-ST amp and hooked it up via the preouts on my Denon 3802. As expected, the mains started to hum. Alright, I smugly thought, I've read the posts here, it is probably a ground loop potential problem between the...

    About 6 months ago, I was bitten hard by the home theater/music bug. At that time, when I was purchasing the various Monster interconnects from a local AV store, I noticed that their prices were on average 50% more than the MSRP on the Monster website. This was not a local phenomenon. A wide...
