Static Problem


I have a VPI TNT MKV/JMW12.5/van den hul Black Beauty set-up all sitting on top of VPI TNT stand with a Bright Star Big Rock.

I live in Pittsburgh, PA. As the winter has come, I have noticed static "pops" developing ( mostly in one (right) channel. I usually discharge by touching the turntable platter, but it soon builds up again.

Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.

Get some moisture into that room's air. I run a humidifier full-time in my listening room during the winter, makes a huge difference in the static levels. Feels better on your sinus passages and lungs, too. Also helps to keep the wood cabinets from getting dry so fast.
