I have found the easiest way to eliminate the hum is to isolate where it is comming from and then teach it the words. This works for any whistles you might come across.
I think it's time for me to go to bed.

Need help solving hum problem
This one really has me stumped....
The system:
Sony SCD-777ES
analog out into Placette Active Line Stage
digital out into Dodson DAC into Placette
Turntable also into Placette
Placette into CJ11A
ALL front end components plugged into Shunyata Hydra PLC
I get constant, low-volume hum when the Placette is switched to either the Dodson OR the Sony analog out, but not when switched to vinyl or any unused input.
The problem is cured when the Dodson is plugged into another outlet (same circuit). Why would the Dodson contaminate the system at all, and (this is the kicker) for two of the sources (itself and the Sony analog out) but not for the phono?
Any ideas? thanks. --dan
