Look at Artie, breaking the gold bud jokes out and being loose, with a low post count.
I like you already. That picture goes with my Mac 1700 Receiver, on the day of purchase. |

I have noticed the (Hum) stops if I take the coax off or I disconnect the HDMI cable without any power going to the cable box (unplugged).
Any chance its a poor quality HDMI? The one coming off the box looks pretty standard. Edit The answer was : NOPE! Last edited by KingRT; 02-18-2010 at 10:35 PM. |

It is a ground problem. Cable TV is notorious for this problem. Have you had a chance to try one of the filters mentioned above?

I put a wire touching my cable box and then touched a ground (screw on socket) and the hum stopped.
Cable man says its an electrical problem and broke gates out the Front door to his next victim.. I am not so sure its not a cable ground problem. I ordered cheap filter to see if that works. |

Glad it worked for you. Hum is the hardest annoyance to troubleshoot; let alone find it's cause.
