Grumpy Old Fart
So, it has been a while since I fired up the Luxman stack. I put some good old Al Stewart on the table, and was thoroughly enjoying the tunes. In between the cuts on the record, I kept hearing this annoying hum. It seemed to go away when the music was playing. When the record finished side 1, I decided to track this down, as Luxman equipment just doesn't do that. Ever.
I started shutting things down; first the turntable, then the preamp, and finally the 3 amps. The hum persisted..
Following my tired, old ears led me to the source of the hum........
The Man cave refrigerator was trying to keep the beer cold. It was doing a very good job, so i took one out so as to lessen the load.
It got to temperature and shut off. All was well in the man cave again, plus the added benefit of getting my thirst quenched was a befitting reward to my search and destroy mission.
