Shelter 201 hum


I just installed a Shelter 201 on my SME 3012/Garrard 401 combo.  Disappointed there is a far amount of hum present.  I just removed a Shure Type V which had no hum at all so nothing was changed but the cartridge.  I checked all leads and everything looks/feels fine.  Any ideas out there?

FYI: The Shure has a ground tab on the right channel ( green pin). Sounds like you now have a grounding problem. If you have the tonearm ground lead hooked up , leave it off and see if the hum goes away. If not try to hook it up to another ground source.
