Author Topic: Lamphouse buzz getting in magnetic playback Jason Metcalfe Expert Film Handler Posts: 134 From: Austin, TX, U.S. Registered: May 2010 posted 11-29-2012 03:00 PM                     Hey Don, I wanted to see if you ever found a solution that worked for you, we're getting a really bad hum from the lamphouse when playing mag track 70mm though our JJ, or at least it's only present when the lamp is struck.  |  IP: Logged Ben Wales Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 602 From: Southampton. England Registered: Jul 99 posted 11-29-2012 03:55 PM                     I had the same problem at home with my ORC/Orcon 1000B and the only way I could remove the Earth Hum was to ground a wire direct to Sound rack and the Projector.  |  IP: Logged Don Furr Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 509 From: Sun City, Ca USA Registered: Nov 2002 posted 11-29-2012 04:24 PM                     Jason that's been so long ago I really don't remembered what I did to resolve the problem. All I can tell you is that I'm still running mag but using a Strong Super LumeX lamp and I don't have any problem with hum.  |  IP: Logged
