what to do cordless phone amplifier problem


Hi,

I have mono amps where one of the two mono amps has intermittent interference from static which comes out of one of the speakers. I did a variety of tests to rule out as the source of the problem: the speakers, the preamp, the cd player, the speaker cable, and the interconnect cable. I also tried grounding the amplifier as well as power conditioner. I sent the amplifier back to the manufacturer and the manufacturer says the amp works fine.

Today, my wife tried to use the cordless phone in the downstairs bedroom and instead of getting a dial tone she got the sound of my stereo blaring through the cordless phone receiver. She then noticed that this same thing happened on the kitchen cordless phone too.

I assume that the problem with phone picking up my stereo signal is linked to my intermittent static issue.

Since its happening on two separate cordless phones on two different floors of the house(same phone number though), should I be calling a electrician or the phone company to check out the phone lines?

The problem does not occur continuously. The phenomena lasted for about 10 minutes.

Any thoughts?

Have you tried unplugging the A/C on the phones? You may need a line conditioner or better ground to eliminate this. Are your phone plugs 3 prong? Try a cheater (3 prong to 2 prong adaptor) to avoid ground loops. Your phone system may be grounding itself in the same place as your electricity???
Even relocating the phone bases to the other side of the house to utilize circuits on the other side of you fuse box may do the trick.
My electrician would be lost if you called him with this problem...
