Topic: How Joe keeps his rig quiet?

Hi,

I was sitting 30 feet from Joe's rig at the gig, and one thing I have noticed that it was really loud even through plexiglass panels, Joe was getting feedbacks from 10-20 feet distance effortlessly,  but there was no even a slight hum o buzz going out of the rig.

Does anyone know what he uses to get this result? Gate? Smart electrical filters? Super cables? Shielded guitar cavities? Buzz filters?

Thanks for any input smile

He uses ground lifts and a power conditioner.

Ben - sounds fair. But can you explain a bit in what way he uses ground lifts? Are they built in his amps? Pedal power source?

It just removes the ground from each amp so it won't loop making serious noise.
