crypticcelery<p><a href="https://chaos.social/tags/AskFedi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AskFedi</span></a>: So, I have this little, rather cheap amplifier for my desk audio setup. It has a two channel RCA audio (line in) input and is a bluetooth audio receiver. The latter works pretty well. But no matter what device I connect via line in, there is just a baseline noise/hum, and now I am wondering: Is it just a problem with the thing? Or do I need fancier outputs?</p><p><a href="https://chaos.social/tags/Audio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Audio</span></a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/BoostsWelcome" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BoostsWelcome</span></a></p>
