somewhere along the line, someone said balanced power would solve ground loop issues. I have a BPT unit for my front end, but still get the ground loop hum if I use certain outlets. Does this mean I'd need a BPT unit for my entire audio rig, including amps? how much capacity would an amp need (I'm assuming it's more than just what the amp is spec'd as needing)
