Re: need help with the ella

I see. I guess I'm just a little miffed at being informed that if I want a choke in the power supply of my Ella(if I order one) then I will have to modify the PCB board and shoehorn a choke in. On the DIYCable site it says that the Ella comes with a choke supply designed into it, not that you will have to modify the kit to use one. Then I misunderstand about the severity of the hum problem that is being discussed. I thought that I had wasted all of the time drooling over the Joplin and the Ella only to find out that they are not such good deals after all. I'm releived to find out that this is not the case. One other trick that I have seen done is to twist together the chassis ground and the safety ground wires and then solder a 10 ohm resistor bypassed by a .1uF cap on to the ends of the twisted wires and attach the resistor and the cap to the star ground point. This is supposed to work well at breaking up ground loops. Thanks for setting me straight Zarniwoop.
