Panamax Sub 2

[Inghammer]

Anyone else out there using a Panamax Sub2 surge protector. When I plug the cable in to the Line In and from the Line Out to the VTF3MK3 all i get is hum.

Any advice?

Yes, I have one on my VTF-3 MK2. It is working fine, but I did have a hum problem when I first connected it. I finally got rid of the problem, but I am sorry because I do not remember actually doing anything to fix it. It kind of fixed itself.

I would suspect some kind of ground loop problem, especially if your subwoofer is on a separate circuit from the rest of your system. I remember chasing the hum problem for sometime before it disappeared. I hope it does not comeback! I would check all your audio cables to make sure that they are in good condition.

I think it is a good idea to have surge suppressors on all of your AV equipment and having the additional suppressor on the audio line is also a good idea to help protect prevent the audio line from becoming a "surge line" between the subwoofer and AV receiver.

Ground loop problems can be a real pain to find sometimes.....I hope that you have corrected your problem by now.

The problem isn't fixed right now I'm not using the line in/out I just have the power plugged into the Panamax

Everything is new, new cable from Hsu and one cable new from Blue Jeans, new sub, new surge protector, new outlet, new everything.

I'll have to call Panamax
