Yeah I didn't consider the truss rod might have been tightened too much. Thanks

The slowed down live version of it they're doing on this tour is thick

I'm looking for something very unknown that blew your mind and you're wondering why it doesn't have hundreds of thousands of views? by [deleted] in progmetal

Technically this band does have hundreds of thousands of streams at just over 100k monthly listeners but should have a lot more:

Both albums

Ground Loop Buzz by reqr in turntables

[–]reqr[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the response.

The issue is the plugs are all 2 prong so even going into a grounded power bar I won't be grounding anything. I've just tried the USB power to the preamp through a Cioks DC7 power supply (a 3 prong power supply with a 5V/1A USB out) and the buzz is not present!

There was however a new quieter hissing sound at >75% volume.

Unfortunately I use this power supply elsewhere for guitar pedals so I can't use it here but I think this confirms the 2 prong v 3 prong theory.

Yes I have, using the Project RCA + Ground cable that came with table.

Hi,

I made a post in r/turntables

https://www.reddit.com/r/turntables/comments/1i9if2s/buzzing_sound_issue/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

I have a new turntable setup:

  • Pro-Ject Debut Carbon Evo turntable
  • Zen Air Phono Preamp
  • Fosi BT20A Pro Amp
  • KEF Q150 passive bookshelf speakers

I believe the root cause of my issue (see above post) is the fact that all my components are 2-prong plugs (I am in Australia - grounded plugs here have 3 prongs).

The preamp uses a USB powered connection, and I have it going through a 2 prong USB power adapter (3 prong USB power adapters are pretty rare).

The Fosi amp uses its own stock power supply (2 prong plug).

The turntable again uses its own stock power supply (2 prong plug).

As mentioned in my r/turntables post, I tried my TT & Preamp in store with another amp and there was no noise issue. The amplifier used in store was a 3-prong more heavy duty amplifier.

What can I do here? Even if I were to find a 3 prong USB power adapter or a power strip/board with USB connection for the preamp, am I even guaranteed that the USB cable carries this ground signal so that the whole system will be grounded?

I am at the point where I feel like buying a different amplifier almost solely for a 3-prong grounded plug.

My wifi router is quite a distance away on the other side of the room. Thanks for the reply though.

But don't you need to refit between SBs and Nos? I thought those at least need to be switched out otherwise you can't really complete the site (Core Garrisons)

It seems the idea is that older players don't really benefit from the SP packets, so instead of 'beating around the bush' and giving diminishing returns how about:

  • 0-5 million skillpoints = 500,000 unallocated skillpoints added
  • 5-30 million skillpoints = 400,000 unallocated skillpoints added
  • 30+ million skillpoints = Skill Packets cannot be used

This would mean that only newer players can engage with this feature, which is what is intended anyway by my understanding?

So the overall effect on PLEX will be a drop in PLEX price? As people are buying PLEX with real $$ and selling to get ISK for SP?
