    Buzzing with home network system

    I have installed a home audio system with 8 speakers wired direct to a data center, these are hard wired into a modular face plate with RCA connections.
    The amplifier i am using is a Teac AG980 multi zone, i have a desktop connected via headphone jack & ground loop isolator to AUX source, my problem exists only when playing audio through the PC/Itunes.
    I get interference/ hum with low audio only from the PC, if i connect an ipad/iphone direct to AC source via isolator the sound is perfect, also if i play the radio on amp it's perfect.

    One problem i did notice when playing is amp seems to be overheating when playing audio through PC, this maybe the issue and i will test amp in aonther install today or tomorrow.

    Am i missing something here?

    not too sure but speakers and amps may not be compatible like the 2,4,or 8 ohm specs and i dont think you can run that through network.found this.
    Google Image Result for http://www.teac.eu/fileadmin/project_data/hifi/products/full-size-components/receivers/ag-980/GALLERY/ag-980-03_GALLERY.jpg

    recheck all connections also.

      The speakers that i ma using are Sonace CR101


      Speaker impedance is 8 Ohm and each speaker is directly connected to L/R channel in each zone.
      I have changed ground loop isolator to rule this out with no effect, will test amplifier today and update thread
