I hope this is the correct place to ask this sort of question. I also tried googling and searching the forum but couldn't find an answer.
Basically I have what I believe is a ground loop after adding replacing my integrated amp with a power amp. It's a soft buzzing from my Q100 speakers that goes away if
1) My Schiit Asgard 3 (which I am using as a preamp for my power amp) is turned off or
2) If my REL Q150E subwoofer (which is being fed speaker-level inputs from my power amp) is turned off
I tried to fix it by plugging everything into the same power strip but to no avail. But given I can only really hear it if I put my ears up to the speakers, I don't know if it's worth the effort to fix. My only worry is that it may cause long term damage to my audio equipment, especially my speakers. Does it?
