I had the cable guy come to the house today. The drop to the carriage house (separate from the house) was never installed correctly - mainly not grounded or binded. I helped the guy figure out the re-routing of the drop so we could meet code, etc. After doing the work, he said that not having a ground was not a real issue, so I showed him the 75-300-75 balun that I had been using for the hum and he looked amazed. He then asked "What are those?" pointing to my naked Maggies in wood frames. I briefly explained how they work and what I did with mods, biamping, etc. He says "You could do our job. This is much more complicated than anything we deal with." As I reach retirement after 35 years in a Pediatric ED, it's nice to know I have a fall back, just in case.
