Awe-d-o-file, this $1200 preamp has outperformed my previously used (CAT Ult MK2) $6000 preamp by a wide margin. Another audiophile recommended it. This $1200 preamp replaced his $14000 (VTL 7.5) preamp. That's why a
$2700 (Stealth Dream) is used on it. Alan could you give me more details
on your suggestion? What transformer should I use? How do I install it?
Give me the "transformer installation to eliminate ground hum for dummies" version. Thanks. BTW I installed my first Hammond 193L choke on the PLC (Hydra 8) as you and Bartc advised. I ordered 3 more so I can install one for each used outlet on the PLC. I read a lot of your posts regarding this and assume I am donig this right. Am I? Also another basic question on connecting the Hammond 193L to the AC plug. I know the longer lead is the hot and the shorter is the neutral. I read on another post that said the hot lead should be attached to the wider blade on the plug and the neutral to the other blade. Is this correct? Thanks.

Bart
