Francina Decosse 16.09.2010 | I had the "radio" noise with some devices in the past. It's like MW/SW radio and it's like I can hear the the data being read out of my hard drive. Can't suggest a permanent solution but have few ideas for what to try out: 1) if you're using laptop, try unplugging your laptop from the power source leaving it on battery only. Not a solution but will isolate if the power circuits is the cause. 2) if on desktop, try to have both the PC power plug and the amp into the same PDU. That worked for me on a desktop I've had, but never worked with a laptop. 3) try to bridge the units with a grounding wire. The Pio may not have a ground connector, as it most likely doesn't have a phono input. You could still do fine by attaching it to the rmx ground screw and to some of the outer RCA rims on the Pio reciever. as per the sound quality - had (and still have) a Hercules DJ Console (MK1) since it was out back in 2003. The flattest, poorest sound I've ever got from a computer. Even the internal audio interfaces in my laptops over the years were better. HTH! |
Antonetta Wikel 16.09.2010 | Are you saying that the "radio noise" you describe goes away when you unplug the RMX? If so there may be a grounding issue. As far as the audio sounding "tinny", are you sure all eq in the chain is flat? Also with home theater amps there are many things that can be your problem. First make sure you're set to a stereo output and not a 5.1 or Dolby ProLogic output. Second, do you have a sub hooked up to your system? Sometimes there's setting's on home theater amps that route a certain amount of signal, usually 100-80hz and below to a sub, especially if you have satellite sized speakers. If you give e a little more info on your total setup, maybe I can be of more help. |
Edmond Batta 16.09.2010 | What do you have the main volume on the RMX set at? If it is all the way up then it probably won't sound that great. Also make sure you are using a line level input on the stereo and not a phono input. |
