"HumX did not touch the hum/buxx problem"

Value:
For me it was a complete wast of money with no support form Ebtech.

Sound:
I have a horrendous hum or buzz in my Strat/Fender Blues Jr. system at home. It disapppears (except for the normal single coil noise) elsewhere. I bought the HumX in the hope that it would solve the problem. It did absolutely nothing. I recognize that I appear tohave a problem with the home wiring. I hired an lelectrictrician to test all the outlets and drive a new 10' copper gound- stil have the buzz that only goes away when I ground all the strings with my hand. The Ebtech website is not particularly helpful. I sent a polite e-mail to Ebtech askng for some guidance- gfot no answer.

Ease of Use:
Pretty simple. Plug in to outlet; plug amp into the HumX. The problem is that it did nothing to correct the problem.

"i'd be lost without this."

Feature:
n/a

Quality:
so far, so solid,

Value:
yes, it may seem expensive for what it looks like, but i don't have the option of hiring a competent electrician to wire my apartment properly. i've bought three of these, and they're worth every penny. it's hard to put a dollar amount on clean sound.

Desirability:
it's simple, practical and works flawlessly. if you need it, you should have it, period.

Sound:
the humx has killed every ground hum i've thrown at it, and my little apartment/bedroom studio is the lousiest-wired place i've ever called home.

Support:
n/a

Overall:
my only gripe is the form factor. it takes up two spaces in a rack-mounted power conditioner a la a furman rack rider.

About This Product!
Description
From Our Catalog
The Hum X filters out unwanted voltage and current in the ground line that cause ground loop hum while simultaneously maintaining a solid, safe ground. You no longer have to run your audio signal through any type of tone-sucking filter. Simply place the Hum X on the end of the power cord of the equipment that has a Ground Loop and plug the Hum X into the wall outlet. Ground Loop is gone -- safely -- and audio signal remains intact. The easiest, safest way to get rid of ground loop hum.
Connect the Hum X between the offending equipment and your AC source and it safely filters out voltage and current that cause ground loop hum. The noise is gone but the gear stays safely grounded.
