A notch filter system for eliminating a specific "stop" frequency from an AC electrical input signal, such as 60 Hz "hum" from an audio program signal. An L/C tuned circuit that is tuned to the stop frequency is used to develop a modified input signal that is in phase with the input signal only at the stop frequency. The two signals are amplitude-balanced and fed to the respective inputs of a balanced differential amplifier which is responsive to both input signal phase and amplitude differences so as to cancel the signals at the stop frequency where they have the same phase and amplitude but not at frequencies above and below the stop frequency where they differ in phase and amplitude.
