[locustream] ground-noise

Dear All

I've noticed that most off the streamboxes have a small amount of ground noise. I'ts kind of a shame because the sound quality, especially with the new microphones is getting quite good. If you have a screen plugged into the streambox its mains connector automatically provides a ground, however when you take the screen away, since the streambox only has a 2 pin mains adapter that nasty ac buzz appears.

Here is an easy way to remedy it using a jump lead which is easy to find in any electronics store:

This is using a french mains outlet - for other countries you'll have to improvise but I'm sure you get the idea.

best Peter
