So here is the situation. My son has a Conrad Johnson Met 1 6 channel analog tube preamp. Just this weekend we added a Conrad Johnson 5 channel amplifier. They both were plugged into a Shunyata Hydra power conditioner. When I we turned the amp on we got a loud very audiable hum. So we rechecked our connections and turned everything on again...same hum. So I called my friend because he owns the same Conrad Johsnson two pieces. He suggested we use a cheater plug that goes from 3 prong to two prong.
Sure enough that worked!
I still have a couple of questions though:
1. Is using a cheater plug safe on an amplifier?
2. Is there a better way?
3. Do you think this effects sound?
