Wanna know how noisy your AC is ?


Would you also like to know if your "AC treatments" are getting rid of the majority of noise ? Well, now you can : )

I'm going to set up a small "AC analysis kit" that will be available on a "borrow as needed" case. It will consist of an Audioprism AC Line Sniffer, an AC Polarity checker and a multimeter to verify "most proper" polarity of your components in terms of chassis ground / power cord orientation. To make things easy, i'll probably type up a brief set of instructions on how to use the Sniffer and the multimeter. The AC Polarity checker is a no-brainer, so no notes needed.

If you are interested in borrowing these, please respond here and i'll try to work out a schedule. This will only be going to people with positive Agon feedback and / or a very consistent history of posting here in the forums. I realize that some of the contributors here are not consistent buyers / sellers of gear and would not want to disregard them for that reason.

Obviously, this will be done on the "honour system", so i'm trusting in you to use them and return them in the condition that you received them AND do so on a timely basis. Borrowers of this "kit" will be responsible for insured return shipping. If there are enough people interested, i'll set up some type of rotation so that you can ship to someone relatively close. This will keep costs down to a bare minimum for all involved.

Sound like a plan ? Sean

THE LINE SNIFFER WORKS!

I would encourage everyone to try it. I did a sweep of my apartment about 3 years ago when I installed some AP Quietlines. Surprisingly, even areas/outlets not used sometimes had some noise, so I recommend checking EVERYWHERE.

And you'll know AC noise when you hear it - "Honey, the bacon's frying!"
Sean, Elizabeth is on to something, and besides I'm only a little north of where she lives. I would suggest sending it to her first!!!

I will wait till she's done with it!

Sign me up-be more than glad to pay shipping both ways or to cooperate in any way needed
Sean, when everything makes it's rounds and things have settled I would like to give it a try. I work in Rosemont, so we can probably arrange an exchange.

Thanks, Doug
Sean, if possible, I would also like to give this a try.

Thank you for your generosity,
Joe
