hey gang,
i got a oneac power conditioner from a fellow head-fi member in order to try to drop my noise floor, blacken my blacks, and protect my gear from surges. however, i took the thing home and noticed it has an annoying hum. it's not terribly loud, but it's something that you can't help but notice in a quiet room.
and really, what's the point of getting my noisefloor down at the cost of having to use a noisemaker?
now that i've got my speaker rig, i'd like to get a cheap power conditioner for it. i have heard of good results from some of oneac's larger offerings. however, are they all going to be noisy? is something about them inherently noisy?
is there another (cheap) option that is completely quiet? i don't want to buy an 'audiophile' one, because once the audiophile label is on something, its cost skyrockets. (ie, cd mats)
toodles!
