When my theater was built, our amplifier cabinet was wired on a completely different panel from our sound booth. Indeed, it's on a completely different leg of the building's 600A service. I know this is not an ideal situation, but it's not something that I can change for the foreseeable future.
As you can probably foresee, I'm suffering from fairly consistent speaker hum which persists even when I've taken out all peripherals. It varies somewhat depending on what else is going on in the building (we're in the same building as a gymnasium). I'm wondering if there is anything I can do to mitigate this issue short of rewiring to try to fix the ground loop. In particular, I wonder if some sort of isolation transformer might help and, if so, where such a transformer should be placed for best effect.
Thanks in advance for your help!
