Post subject:  JBL powered subwoofer has a hum

I have a JBL JRX SP118 Powered sub and it has a terrible hum. At first I thought it was a ground issue with one of the cords but I have disconnect everthing I could think of and the hum is still there.  Has anyone ever experienced this if so what could it be? I was thinking it might have something to do with the built in crossover.  :thinkin:   Thanks

It's most likely your power cord is too close or touching your sound cord from either your mixer or crossover.  Try separating them.

Is the hum there with the input disconnected? Try plugging in the power with a ground eliminator adapter. If it is a 60 or 120 hertz hum then the filters in the power supply are bad.

In fact I'm working on a jbl eon amp right now The 2 large round black filters on the left are in the 38 volt supply the 4 smaller blue ones are in the +&- 70 volt supply.

Jbl schematics are availible on the net schems
and they have very good tech support.
