      Improper grounding of the cable. Problem almost everyone gets when they hook cable to their setup. Any chance you can hook it to your setup via an optical cable?

          Yup ground loop hum from cable. Steve, do a search in Club Rotel for "ground loop hum" there's been a few threads with good solutions.

              Get the coax cable feed grounded properly to the earth wire from the electrical panel. You can buy coax grounding blocks at places like Radio Shack or Princess Auto for a couple of bucks that will do the job nicely.

                      Ground Loop Hum & Cable Isolator
                      by Club1820
                      So when I first set up my HT I had a terrible Ground Loop Hum. With the help of this forum I purchased the Jensen Isolator and all things were great. I connected the isolator directly to the cable outlet in the basement/HT and the hum was gone. I even "think" it improved the picture. (?)...

                      Ground Loop Hum
                      by chanlon
                      Any of you folks find the Rotel 1570 prone to experiencing Ground Loop Hums?

                      Seems that the Oppo BDP-95 connected via multi-channel analog creates the ground loop with the Rotel processor. If I disconnect the RCA cables, the ground loop disappears. If I use a cheater plug on the Oppo,...

                      Ground loop hum on RSP1066
                      by Claude D D
                      I had a nasty ground loop hum when I connected my Infocus X1 projector via the S-Video connection to the monitor out on my RSP-1066.I had the X1 plugged into a Panamax Max 1000+ at the side of my room.When I ran an extension cord from the Max 1000+ to my Monster HTS-5100 and plugged it into the HDTV...

                      Ground Loop Hum and the RSP-1066
                      by Daymond
                      Just got a 1066 and I am having a problem with what I think is Ground Loop Hum. I have the unit hooked up to a Monster PowerCenter HTS-3500MkII which is plugged in to a grounded outlet with all of my other components. I then disconnected the other components leaving only this processor plugged in along...

                      Ground Loop Hum?
                      by P-Dub
                      I just noticed a ground loop hum coming from my subs, which are being powered by a Sampson S700. My whole setup is plugged into one large surge protector. As far as I can tell, if I shut off the TV, the hum goes away. I don't notice it during movies.

                      So should I just leave it be, or try...
