I think you might be discussing where rega grounds their tt, which, if you remove the end stub you will see a compression clip secured in the end part of the threads. It sounds like this has come loose. Check it out and just re secure it and your hum problem should be resolved for ever.
Rega TT-PSU drops right channel
Hi everyone. Recently my RP6 starting dropping the right channel as soon as the needle hit the record. My routine is (with the TT-PSU powered off):
- place the record on the platter after a nitty gritty clean
- power up the TT-PSU while giving the platter a nudge
- clean record with anti-static carbon brush
- needle drop
First I thought a tonearm wire was loose on the cartridge or something along that line. But, if I switch the TT-PSU to 45 and then back to 33 my right channel works just fine. I know Regas ground to the right channel. Could something be wrong with the cable between the TT-PSU and the table? TT-PSU malfunctioning (I think it is still under warranty).
Thoughts / recommendations? TIA
