Nuforce with Stillpoints ERS fabric

I was using Discovery cables for the whole vinyl chain. I have been changing out cables, MIT, Nordost and Radio Shack, none of them resolve the buzz issue. I even tried wrapping the cables in aluminum foil, did nothing to help. I can move the cables and that also will affect the level of the buzz, similar to an antenna affect. I don't remember having this issue with the previous phono pre, ARC PH-5. At least it wasn't bad enough for me to notice. With the BAT pre I had this issue without the turntable connected. That is another option, replace phono pre and i would rather replace the amp than the phono pre.
Thanks

Actually that is one of the products that's recommended for tweaking the Nuforce amps. Check out this sight for more info.

I have Nuforce 9SE's and have found the Stillpoint ERS material to make a material improvement in the sound. However, they did not solve the problem I had with both amps humming. After E-mailing Jason at Nuforce, I found the answer lies in AC grounding. Do not float the grounds on the amps and if possible have the amps and preamp connected to the same circuit. That solved the humming problem for me. Good luck. Jason may have further suggestions.

I replaced the Nuforce with my Anthem amp and the buzz went away, That's how I figured out that it's the Nuforce amps.
I am only using balanced for the amps, I don't have balanced inputs anywhere else. It is not a dedicated line,but I will be having that done in the near future.
I have satelite tv and do not have this issue with anything but the phono playback.

Jdodmead,

I had the same problem with a pair of early vintage NuForce Reference 8 amps that caused noise in my phono stage. In fact I ended up selling that phono stage thinking it had some issues, but now I realize that it was the RFI from the NuForce amps that caused the noise. This was an expensive solid-state phono preamp. In that same system with the NuForce amps, a Musical Surroundings Phonomena phono stage worked fine -- I guess it had better shielding. Also, The TAD-150 tube phono seemed to be okay.

You didn't say which NuForce amps you had or which vintage they are. If they are the older Reference 8 amps, (below version 8.02) they probably don't have the RFI chokes on the speaker output wiring, in which case you can return them to NuForce and have the RFI supressor chokes installed.

If they are a newer model, and they have the chokes (you can see them if you remove the covers) then another approach would be to move the NuForce amps as physically far away from the BAT phono as you can manage. Perhaps use long interconnects and put them on the floor by the speakers. I have another system set up that way and there is no phono interference at all. But that one uses a MM phono preamp and not the higher gain MC phono amp. I think that if your NuForce amps have the supression chokes and you separate them from the BAT phono by a fair distance you shouldn't have any interference issues.

Good luck, and let me know how you make out.
