Subject: Re: [PolySix] Does the Mono/Poly sound better than the polysix?

Again, this solution is equal to taping the ground pins and should never
ever used permanently.

A DI-Box is the solution to this problem. They are inexpensive.
(Cheapest 2-channel/stereo one here in Europe for approx. 20€.)

I have experienced noise/humm with USB audio interfaces because of
"dirty power" over USB. That's why I was asking whether the USB thingie
has its own power supply.
