Model 200 M-Block Power Amplifier

Owner’s Manual

Warning: 

if you suspect that the grounding system in your home’s electrical 

wiring is causing the hum problem, it is important that you do not make 
any  changes  to  the  wiring  yourself.  Only  a  licensed  electrician  should 
make any changes to household wiring, and they must be made in full 
compliance with all local building, safety and electrical codes.

Suggestion #4:

Faulty earth grounds may also cause hum in your home’s electrical system. In 
the past, cold water pipes were often used for the earth ground, so it is important 
to make sure that your ground connection is still valid and has not become 
loose or corroded. The cold water pipe method may no longer be valid in some 
locations due to requirements that the water meter be isolated from the water 
mains with a length of PVC pipe, thus interrupting the ground circuit. The 
safest, and most reliable, approach may be to provide your own ground. This 
can be accomplished by having a licensed electrician drive at least five feet 
of copper-jacketed steel grounding rod into the earth, and using that for your 
grounding connection.

Suggestion #5:

If you have hum in your video display device (bars that roll up through image 
at 12-14 second intervals), this may be related to hum you also experience in 
your audio system. The previous suggestion tips may help with this also. If not, 
try isolating the ground in the projectors video signal cable with a base-band 
video isolation transformer, such as the Jensen VB-1BB.
If the hum persists after all of the above suggestions have been tried, contact 
the Outlaw Audio customer service department for assistance.
