Bad Cartridge?


My system is dead quiet until I set the cartridge on vinyl... then it hums. Any ideas?

It was the SAMA... it was tight against the corner brace of the wood base. Fixed!
Damn... its the SAMA! To get it in the right position, it is touching the wood base. I'll cut out part of the corner frame on the base so it won't touch... see if that does it.
