Hi, I have a major problem with a ground loop between my home theater PC and my HIFI. Bazarly enough it is only if i connect up the un-grounded preamp as an intermediary, if i wire straight to the powers the buzz aint there. anyway back to my question. I have used every loop blocker i can afford, they help the problem but the buzz is still there. The only solution I have is to place them on another mains ring. Unfortunatly i have only 1 socket mains ring in my flat and i could not afford another to be fitted. Yesterday I got a (hopefully) splendid idea. My heating is electrical. I removed one of my storage heaters and am about to manually wire into that ring. It is a special heating only circuit in my flats. This means that nothing but heaters are connected to it...in theory really clean electricity (and heating electricity is cheaper in my flats which is why it is a heater only ring). Compared to the drain of a 3kw heater the hifi will drain pittance. Have i discovered a fantastic thing or am i overlooking something? pros 1) Seperate ringmain to all the other inteferance causing electrical appliances in the building! 2) Cheaper electricity 3) that line is designed to have a huge drain on it so will be wired with better materials cons 1) probably in breach of my electricity contract.
