Yay! Everything works now! I can read the forum AND edit my posts!
And I can edit the edited posts also

I noticed this problem begin to occur yesterday, so possibly it is related to the changes made to correct the editing issue. The text on the forums pages now overlaps and runs off the page.
The problem occurs with the browsers Firefox, Google Chr...

[quote user="drdna"]Let me see if I can edit this entry after I post it.[/quote]Nope. I only see profile, print, e-mail, quote, reply. Is there supposed to be an "Edit" button that shows up, or is there some secret special way I don't know about to ...

[quote user="Paul S"]"Success" equals better except for added hum?[/quote] Well, I am sure I can get rid of the hum, so then it will be all good. In fact, I know I can do that just be unplugging the PP2000. That is not an optimal solution of course.

|
[quote user="Paul S"]It is confusing, but the NEUTRAL is not only "referenced to ground", but in properly-designed components it is THE ground. If the PP2000 is a 120V device with a 3-prong plug, then it has 2 references to ground within its chassis,...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]
[quote user="drdna"] Exactly. Thus, it suggests a ground loop internal to the PP2000, doesn't it? [/quote]
In my view it is highly unlikely as a definition of loop itself implies two contacts to ground and PP2000 has on...

This sounds like an interesting idea, especially since it eliminates the RIAA components. Eliminating components is usually a good thing. However, at the "entry level" price of $8,000, I don't think I will be buying one any time soon.

|
[quote user="Romy the Cat"]You will have a noise if you have more than one references to ground. You can easy test it by lifting ground from PP2000 input. It would not be a good way to operate but as the hum-test it will do. [/quote]Yes, I tried this...
|
[quote user="Romy the Cat"]When a PP2000 is unplugged from the wall and runs from the battery it is not that PP2000 is unplugged but the ground via PP2000 is unplugged. You most likely have no noise because you have another path to ground and your sy...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]the hum people apparently pick their own ground loops that too masked in noise without PP2000.[/quote]It is not exactly correct. There is 60 Hz hum eliminated by lifting the ground to the amplifiers. The neutral is connec...

[quote user="Paul S"]No, the ceiling fan switch is not supposed to read through the PP 2000. But, that's Showbiz, or so I'm told.No doubt APS has loads to say about it, as ever...Paul S[/quote]Actually the ground issue is not too much of a prob...

[quote user="Paul S"]Every case of a "dedicated ground" I have seen, including my own, involves only the redundant "ground" wire. The "ground" wire may not be useful for every component, and it can actually introduce noise in some cases.[/quote]Toda...

Using the PP2000 has been a very interesting experience. Immediately listening I am NOT struck that it is the most wonderful improvement ever, which I have said before is a GOOD sign. Usually the seductive sound changes are colorations that are enj...

Okay, today I hooked it up and have spend some time listening. The change in my system was very dramatic and positive. First of all, it seems suddenly like a good electricity day. The noise floor dropped out. The timbre of the music and the body ...

[quote user="Paul S"]Adrian, you mentioned a while back that you'd taken The Plunge. How goes your own test? You've never mentioned it again.Paul S[/quote]Paul, before I had a chance to take the PP2000 out of the box, I had to have surgery for a knee...
