Hi guys,
Prety new here but ive been reading a lot . Here is my problem. I get an annoyinh hum out of my subwoofer with 1 cable and not the other. I bought a paradigm ps1000 subwoofer a month ago, cause the sale rep told me it was a 1000watt rms, witch it aint, and well i got a ixos bronze subwoofer cable and well that subwofer wasnt cutting it for me(need louder) and well i found out that it was only 175 rms afterwards and decided to try another cable sumthin better. And bought an ixos silver series cable from a guy on this board and all I always get an annoying hum now out of the subwoofer.
what i did tried allready:
When i received the cable,I took it out of the box uncoiled it and plugged it in the back of my receiver and into the sub and i got an annoying humming sound all the time(yes its plugged in the correct direction ). I then proceeded to unplug it and try back my old bronze cable and boom the hum is gone. tried routing the cable differently, didnt work, tried coiling it didnt work, put the sub as far as the cable would let me, moving it away from any electronics, even putting a board under it all a no go, i always get that annoying hum. Any ideas on this or what i could try to do to solve it.
Also could it be that the cable is fubared :frowning:
thx a lot guys
