I am thinking about upgrading to the PSU 1 power cable as I have read excellent reviews.
The reason for this post is I have this 'ad infinitum' problem with speaker buzz/ground loop that increases from 50% + volume on my amp.
I have tried every fix/suggestion I can acquire from the internet/forums without going near real techy stuff/analysis :
- Buzz still there with my other phono stages before upgrade to GS(Rega, Fosi, etc)
- Tried various ground combinations ie None, TT to phono, TT to phono to amp, etc
- Swapped/Configured interconnects.
- No change when using my other cartridges (MM) ie Audio Technica, Goldring, Ortofon)
- Changed rack configuration ie TT on a separate placement (distance) from speakers/amp etc
- Unplugged any other electrical stuff in the vicinity ie Broadband extenders, TV

As an aside when touching TT RCA connections buzz noise noticeably increases & other parts of the TT when touched sounds are amplified.
Will spending the money on the GS PSU 1 show an improvement albeit i am aware this 'buzz' not be completely eliminated.

Any suggestions appreciated

Thx Len

Short answer: no!

Best advice is to call John C on 01909 568739, and discuss.

Oh, and welcome!
