Hum a problem with Planar 25/ Grado cartridge?


Disappointed with Planar 25/Elys combination. Dealer said cartridge needs break-in period of a couple of weeks. Have always preferred Grados but understand there to be a hum problem with this combination and not with the Rega cartridges. Ideas about Rega carts vs Grado and the hum?

From my experience, Grado will produce a hum with Rega.
Using Rega carts do not use three point mounting. Use the standard alighnment procedure with two-point mounting.
