Thanks for the suggestion. I am glad that it is not expensive. I already have tried the Hsu high pass filter which is working out well. I would be interested to compare this MiniDSP. I wonder if anyone has experience comparing these 2? Moses189

Thanks czarivy. A follow up question to seek advice from Audiogon members: since my Lectron HJ50 tube amp is over 25 years old, assuming it has been used 5 h a week for all these years, what other problems would I expect with continue use if I rep...

Thanks for the advices from Shadorne and mgreen27. Any thoughts as to why using Radio Shack surge protector to connect amp power cord reduces the problem significantly? If I listen to music only for one hour, then no problem is detected. What woul...
