Should Stereo Receiver Have A Ground

After my stereo receiver died, I needed a way to play my old vinyl music. I got this preamp to connect my turntable to my PA System! So now it's nice and loud, and full sounding. Note: You still will need to ground your turntable to your audio power chassis, or you'll hear hum. Remedy: Wire audio ground wire (not power ground) up to a screw on the back of your audio system.

The best stereo receiver I’ve ever owned! If you want the best, this is it!

This stereo receiver was one of my better online purchases!

I use it to connect my tape deck to the stereo receiver.

I bought the stereo receiver for the price and Sony name

I'd been looking for a stereo receiver to incorporate with my existing sound system and this Tree Receiver fit the bill.

i bought this stereo Receiver to replace my old receiver that i gave to my son i was looking for something that used just two speakers and maybe i could connect my sub woofer to it this was the one i could afford plus sony makes good products so i bought this on and i really like it

Long cable - ground lift switch and volume. Only stereo 1/8" to xlr mono. No stereo out options. Attenuatir at max is zero Db. Volume only fades out to negative Db. It is reversable direction as i have recently used the XLR with a turnaround to receive a feed from audio and 1/8" mini as input to muc jack on computer to do last minute recording on a PC. worked well. I use these primarily for corporate events. For simple uses in computer- phone or mp3 volume- ideal.

I play all of my music CD's and MP3's on my desktop computer routing the line out signal from my sound card into a stereo system that has speakers in various locations in my home. There was always a low level hum while the computer was powered on when playing music, not too bad but not desirable. When the computer was powered off the hum would get much louder and the stereo system would need to be powered down or switched to a different input such as FM or phono to eliminate the noise. I tried several filters and even ground isolation circuits, no help. I determined the problem source was common mode noise, a difference between ground potentials of the two systems. I purchased the HE18 because of the size and superior audio specifications. Very easy to install giving me options for several different connector types, I used the RCA style connectors. Excellent results. Problem eliminated. I do not detect any frequency or volume loss.

This receiver has revitalized my 1980s stereo system by allowing Bluetooth transfer from my Sony Walkman (CD quality) and from an iPhone. When powered the receiver goes into pairing mode--your device remembers this receiver...you are connected. So far there has been no problem with connection or distance from the receiver. As this is my second unit (first attached to another stereo system) I only wish I could rename the unit as it comes up with the same name...only to be identified by the Bluetooth address. If you only have one of these, this will not be an issue. Attachment is simple: connect using RCA supplied cord to your receiver aux input. Having it on a switched plug on the receiver is very convenient. If not, you would have to push the light button to switch it into on mode. It has an auto off after a few minutes of not receiving a signal. It also has an optical connection.
