my thoughts too..... take a trip to your local electronics emporium and by a supressor unit for the fridge compressor... you can build a small silencer plug that plugs into an unused socket in a block or wall socket ..this will further reduce noise on the mains ... or look up a rather odd tweak on asylum regarding bentonite or my post on http://www.thecrossovernetwork.com/forum41/1180.html though the affects are small a darker/quieter back ground can't be a bad thing. -- zanash Acoustician and builder of interesting cables ------------------------------------------------------------------------ zanash's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12157 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=46233 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
