Buy.com used to have a good price on them. You might want to check there and also pricegrabber.com.
As I recall, there was also free shipping from buy.com. That can save you a few more $$$$ considering the price of fuel.

I have no idea why it worked but i inserted the isolation transformer between the split cable wire and my HDcable box and the hum is GONE!!!!!! so long, bye bye... i didn't think it would work since i unhooked the cable and the ADCOM still had a hum, but it did so i'm happy. no more cheater plug for me.

I have long been a fan of Tripp Lite products. I have the Isobar HTPOWERBAR10 in my main HT system and the Isobar HT10DBS on my PC based system. Great products!!!!!

Good news, Jay, and for an "upgrade" from about $1 to $10. Maybe the exact path of the groundloop will forever remain a mystery, but if I followed what you did, it's still not the cable TV feed itself, since disconnecting it didn't help, but whatever(presumably another TV)is grounded on the part of the split where you don't have the isolation transformer.

Speaking of power conditioners...which I know *can* be a very touchy subject, I use a MonsterPower HTS 2600 not to produce some sort of magical video and audio into my system but for me it covers the surge protection that keeps my mind in a state of peace *and* I really do like the organized manner in which I can plug all of my devices and keep 'em looking nice and neat. I also like the way it looks externally, matches my system well.
