So IM trying to solve all my noise issues. I have everything going into Furman power conditioners.
1.But the question is why am I having to use ground lift switches to reduce noise?Is this what the furman is supposed to be doing? Correcting ground noise issues. And what are the other causes for noise besides hum?
2. Isnt the furmans supposed to have hum eliminators in them? Is hum a ground problem and can ground problems introduce different noise issues other then hum?
3.And do Hum eliminator adapters do the same thing as ground lifts or whats the deal them?
4.And are there any power strips that have hum eliminators built in.
Some one told me that power strips from office max are quiet but I dont know he was referring to hum or or that they get rid of other kind of noise,like static. I just know I am getting very irritated because I bought 5 power conditions that now seem like they are not doing much of anything. I dont see why I should have to buy hum eliminators or even have to use a ground lift switch, when the furmans are supposed to take any noise off the power lines,protect my equipment and correct grounding issue noise. Which Im still unclear as what causes a grounding issue and how to fix it without using a ground lift switch or converting from a 3 prong to a 2 prong,which both seems like band aids to me.
