Topic: Humming/noise on RCA
Hi all,
Today I connected my RME ADI 2 DAC output to my Denon amp using RCA, however, my speakers gives cosiderable amount of humming/static.
Things I tried:
- I tried different RCA cables, different port on the amp but it stays.
- Also, my Android TV connected to the Denon amp does not give static.
- When I disconnect USB from the ADI 2 DAC the static goes away.
- When I connect to another amp it also produces the same static.
- I tried to ground a screw of the RME DAC (suggested by another forum post) (I chose a screw that holds the side of the DAC at the bottom)
- Unplugging my PC from the wall does not remove the static, however, unplugging the USB from my PC does??
- Replacing the USB cable & plugging into another PC (laptop) gives the exact same hum
When I increase the volume of the denon, humming gets louder
When I increase the volume of the RME dac, humming remains the same
What are my options?
Thank you and kr,
Lesley
