I just picked up my first pin on Sunday which happens to be Jokerz. I will definitely be trying this. I have bad crackling in the sound FX but speech and music is clear other than the very loud hum. I’m listening to it right now while in the basement. Thanks for this post!

I had a Ferrite laying around so I installed it but it didn’t make any difference on my hum. I don’t believe mine has the field update done to it either so I wonder if it’s a combination of things that needs to be done to remove the hum?

I thought I installed mine exactly as he showed in his picture. He has the ferrite around the bundle of cables nearest the speakers and I have the audio cable wrapped around And through the ferrite like he does. It looks the same as his pics but I will double check.

I was thinking the same thing. This is a ferrite I had laying around from the power cord of a old Plasma TV. I wonder if different size ferrites might make a big difference. There is a small electronic component place close to me that should have some if they are opened back up yet. I might stop in there at lunch and grab some different sizes.
