his will not take out a bad grounding situation!! power conditioners do not do that. what your hearing is 60hz hum, meaning that the circuit in your system has started a loop, also if its audio, make sure to use only balance connections or isolation transformers! try using one outlet for your gear and make sure nothing else is sharing the same circuit

The hum might be due to a ground loop. This problem often happens when you interconnect devices via RF/audio/video/etc. cable that are plugged into electrical circuits with different grounds. To troubleshoot this, try disconnecting FM antenna, input and/or output cables from your receiver. Assuming that you have any kind of cable connecting the TV to the receiver, also try removing the RF cable from the TV. Cable TV hookups are reputed to be common causes for ground loops. If the hum goes away with a particular cable removed, search online for a ground loop eliminator device for that type of connection. An inexpensive audio ground loop eliminator is available at RadioShack stores; higher-end audio ground loop eliminators are available online. Cable TV ground loop eliminators are available from online sources. For further information, search the Web for the words "ground loop". Hope this helps! Dave

There is a very very quiet hum. I cannot hear it unless my put the timer to my ear.

Lucy,I found the source of my hum. I have Direct TV HD. I found that going into the menu settings/Audio/Sound Effects and turning that option off, I was able to rid myself of the annoying hum. The option has something to do with keeping the audio settings from channel to channel, while it is changing you hear dead air except for the hum. Nice and quit now. Love this receiver!Larry

Yes. That is exactly what I purchased this for. That annoying Humm is now gone. I was getting that Humm from my home theater sound. It worked perfectly. I'm a very happy customer.

They reduce some of the background noise but not all of it. They are best at reducing regular noises like the hum from air conditioning or air-plane noise. I got them to try and reduce noise from people talking in my office but it didn't really help with that.

No, It's not normal. It's probably 60 (Hz) hum. Try reversing you AC plug, that should fix the problem 90% of the time. If that doesn't work try grounding the case.

it solved my humming problem when i used 2 or more components plugged into my receiver. but when i got a more powerful amp i didnt need it. i would try it...you can always return it.

Yes! I get this annoying hum that only goes (mostly) away if the bass control is all the way down. The volume control has no effect and it doesn't matter if the satellite speakers are plugged in or not. I wanted to put this next to my bed but the hum is intolerable. I plan to return it. I don't know if I should try getting a replacement or if I should give up on this model entirely.I got a replacement and it is worse. It buzzes even with the power off. With the power on I can hear the hum across the (quiet) room. When it is close enough to reach the control from my bed, the hum drives me crazy. Yes!

I use mine to direct insert my guitar and keyboards to my computer. I have not noticed any "hum" in any of my recordings. I haven't use channel 1 (microphone vocal), so I can't help with the phantom powered channel.

Well, weird as it may seem, I am looking for a fan that actually makes a noticeable hum/sound. We use it as a sound conditioner and to drown out external noise when sleeping. Does anyone know of one that would meet that requirement? Ours is about to quit, and it is not the time of year to find one in a retail store. Thank you.

I have a BMW as you describe and I have never really noticed the hum or possibly only at high volumes when a pause in the music. It has never been an annoyance for me. I hope this helps ; )

I'd replace it. If had one for several weeks which I use for about 10 hours per day. It's been great so far with no humming noise!

i doubt it. from what i know having your equipment plugged into different circuits would only make the hum worse. in any case if your equipment hums it is probably not worth spending this much money to fix the problem. good equipment doesn't hum no matter where you plug it in. i suggest getting equipment that uses balanced ( XLR ) or digital ( Optical / Coaxial / XLR ) interconnects. Regular consumer unbalanced analog technology is inherently inferior and was never designed for high performance.

we are not using it to power audio equipment so i do not know if it will produce a hum in your equipment the unit itself is quiet I know some supplies do hum but the one we have is quiet

Welcome to the hum club chum.You need to get your guitar shielded. I did and it helped. Also switch off cfl and computer monitors. Also, use a well conditioned power supply. Is tough. This guy picks up noise like no other. See ehx 44 magnum band on YouTube. The one with the long haired dude is me.

I actually purchased these for my husband's computer so I don't use them. They are about 10 feet away from me and I don't hear any hum. I just ask him and he never hears anything from them either.
