Can hear TV or Radio station via Phono stage ???



What causes this? Most noticable during quiet passages in the music. Using a Lyra Lydian Beta, BAT VKP10, SME 20 Table...

And more importantly...how do I eleminate it? Thanks!

The phono stage contains very high gain with high impedance which makes is very susceptible to RF pick up. You might want to try shielded cables between the turntable and headamp or preamp. You might also try twisting the interconnect cable and repositioning the cable to see if it will pick up less rf. Ferrite clamps on the cable might help if the noise is FM or TV.
