2.Check for the presence of halogen or other low voltage, or fluorescent light- ing connected to the same circuit. These devices can release noise on the A/C line that may cause the transformer to resonate, resulting in hum.
3.An intermittent physical hum can generally be attributed to an external source connected to the same A/C power.
Loudspeaker Hum
In most systems, it is normal to hear some quiet noise when your ear is placed close to the loudspeaker. It is not normal to hear a loud hum when you step away; this is usually an indication of a ground loop. If you suspect your system is exhibiting a ground loop, contact your dealer for recommendations. Follow the steps below to help determine the source of loudspeaker hum:
1.Power the system down and wait a minute or two for the power supply to drain. Remove the preamp connections from the amplifier and power the amp back up. If there is no noise, the problem is not with the amplifier, but may be system-related.
2.Again power down the amplifier. Reconnect the preamplifier and disconnect ALL audio and video sources. Power up the preamp and amp. If the hum returns, it is either coming from the preamplifier, or is the result of a ground loop between the preamp and amplifier. Ensure that both pieces are plugged into the same A/C outlet. All your audio and video equipment should be connected to the same circuit, to make sure that they utilize the same ground.
3.With the system powered down, connect each source component one by one, and power the system back up. Source components such as a satellite receiver, cable box, tuner, or other device connected to an antenna outside the house can cause a ground loop between the audio system’s ground and the ground for the external connection. Your Aragon dealer can offer sug- gestions for eliminating a ground loop. The Mondial Designs Magic Box may also solve this problem: It is available at www.mondialdesigns.com
