## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is there a version with more than one plug? I want to use one for both my pre-amplifier and my amplifier, but buying 2 isn't cost effective**
A: Given what you spent on your pre-amp and amp ... this is dirt cheap.

**Q: Your experience in using this in conjunction with the furman ss6b?**
A: Those are 2 different types of filters that treat different types of noise issues. The furman addresses RFI and EMI and the ebtech addresses 60 cycle hum from your AC power source. Both of these are basic solutions so they won’t solve severe power or interference issues. They won’t replace a $1,000+ Professional power conditioner, but do offer a degree of improvement that may correct some minor issues. Don’t forget that things like single coil pickups are notorious for picking up EMI and RFI in the air and can require a whole different type of solution.

**Q: can i connect this on to a UPS?**
A: It’s a bad product and doesn’t work . I sent it back for refund. Don’t waste your money

**Q: I have a three prong power strip going into a two prong adapter into a two prong outlet. Would Hum X  on my powerstrip, before my amp help rmv buzz?**
A: It says to use it only on three prong sources and only one per powered device.  This won’t work if your wall outlet is two prong

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This device does an excellent job!
*by J***C on February 10, 2021*

This device did the trick for eliminating my ground loop issue with my audio system. Seemed a little pricey but when I considered what I have invested in the audio equipment, it’s peanuts! Absolute silence now (from a tube amplifier, to boot) so extremely happy. I highly recommend PSAudio troubleshooting guides for step-by-step isolation of these type issues. But, caution: this device does not act EXACTLY like a cheater plug. A cheater plug is a great way to see for free if this might work and if you have a ground loop problem at all but I had to move this device from the pre-amp to the power conditioner wall plug and separate the power amp to a different wall plug for the ultimate final solution. Just saying, if it doesn’t work just like the cheater plug don’t give up. Try moving it around. I’m no electrical engineer so I can’t tell you how or why it works or even exactly what my issue is. Guessing it’s in the power conditioner. Also, before I used this, I had added a $10 cable line filter that took care of half the issue, so if you have a TV cable line in the house I recommend that as well. That’s the first place my audio dealer and the PSAudio guides will tell you to look because cables are notoriously dirty. Haven’t really tested whether I can now eliminate the cable line filter since I have this but I know the cable line is a contributor so leaving it. It’s silent. I’m thrilled. Not touching it. Time to spin to some vinyl!

### ⭐ Made absolutely no difference.
*by O***E on July 4, 2021*

Long story short, you need properly grounded plugs in your home or studio or spend tons on a luthier to rig your guitar or bass. This thing did jack and squat to stop any hum.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great IF your equipment is properly grounded.
*by B***K on January 16, 2025*

I bought one if these and it didn't work to reduce electrical noise in my tube guitar amps. I bought an outlet tester on Amazon for less than $10 and come to find out, I have an open ground in this entire house (which essentially means no ground for three prong) So I googled it. "No, a Hum X (ground loop eliminator) will not work effectively if you have an open ground because its primary function is to filter out unwanted voltage on the ground line, which is impossible if there is no ground connection at all; essentially, it needs a ground loop to work, so an open ground defeats its purpose and could potentially create safety concerns by "floating" the ground without properly grounding your equipment."
