An easy way to locate a noisy component is to replicate the problem then start disconnecting components
one at a time, starting with a source. Digital cable boxes and satellite receivers are notorious for making ground
loop hum. This is normally caused by the potential difference on the input wire (shield side) for either of the
boxes when referenced to ground. If this is the case in your system, the installation of an isolating transformer
would be the easiest solution and are normally readily available at your local electronics parts store. A better
solution is a power strip with grounded and surge protected F-connectors that you can pass a signal through.
Where possible, use the Toslink inputs. Because of the optical transmission, there isn’t any audio connection
path to ground between components, and the possibility of a ground loop should disappear.
