That's funny, it is a grado cartridge. Thanks for your response.
Turntable background noise
I had a large amount of background noise coming from my turntable input. The pitch and volume changed when i picked up the tonearm and moved it over the record. When i switched to any other input speakers were quiet (volume up, no music playing).
My power conditioner was mounted directly underneath the shelf where the tt sat. I ended up moving the power conditioner as far away as i could from the tt and i would say 90% of the background noise has been eliminated.
How far away should a turntable be from amps and power conditioners?
Are there cartridges that are more suseptable to this type of interferance?
I have my ground connected to the phono preamp. Is there a better way to ground? Should i make a tinfoil hat to put over my conditioner and amp?
