[QUOTE="Ands, post: 1157631, member: 21995"] Thank you, [USER=1530]@sailor[/USER]. You are quite right. Using the graphic equaliser is not ideal. [ATTACH type="full" width="330px" alt="1692778125884.png"]32666[/ATTACH] I'm not entirely removing that frequency. This adjustment is enough to eliminate the hum from all playback tracks. My set up did suffer from a ground loop issue. I had an extremely annoying buzz coming through the left channel. That drove me absolutely crazy. But thanks to members on this forum, I was able to identify and resolve the issue. (My subwoofer needed to be grounded.) The hum occurs only on certain tracks...and some tracks are affected more than others. I doubt that it's a cabling issue. I have a desktop set up in an open plan area, so I've invested quite a bit of time and effort into cable management. The cabling is as neat as I can get it. That being said, the power cable and interconnects do run in the same conduit pipe. Speaker cables have their own conduits. I suspect the hum is a result of poor room acoustics. To eliminate it - without using a graphic equaliser - would probably entail experimenting with bass traps. That would be expensive and probably be a bit of a hit or miss thing. [/QUOTE]
