Analogue question


As everyone else in the world this lockdown has been a change in "normal " behavior but has given many of us audiophiles plenty of time to listen to "our music " . Since I am planning to downsize my living space I have been going through various pieces of equipment to determine what I will keep and what I would let go . 5 days ago I have come across a maddening problem with my analogue set-up ! Everything sounds great until I want to play a record and before I even place the needle in the grove I get a serious hum through my speakers ! I originally suspected I was getting acoustic feedback because my amp was close to the speakers . Yesterday I moved all the equipment to a distance of 6-10 feet from the speakers and still get the hum when I switch to analogue. Starting to wonder if it is coming from the turntable itself but before I take the time and energy to reset a new rig thought I would post a question on this forum. Any help would be greatly appreciated . Set-up is as follows : Dual Golden turntable w/ortofon red cartridge , McCormack UDP player , Forte 2a preamp feeding Forte 4A amp , speakers are Vandersteen 1C , interconnects KimberKable Heroes ,speaker wire Nordost Blue and Tice power conditioner .

Okay will check that out and see what the deal is...thanks for your help and happy listening !
No problems before only difference is I use a different outlet since the furniture was rearranged . Are you thinking the a/c line causes this even with the line conditioner ?

Yes, and that's exactly why I asked. Everything must be plugged into the same outlet (circuit) or you are likely to get ground loop hum just like you're having.

Ground Loop. Funny, i jsut spoke about those on another thread.
Everything must go to the same ground point. Find one outlet, put a high quality outlet strip on it, plug into that. Need to get somewhere else, get a logn, heavy extension cord.
Grounding not only causes hum, which we all hear, but all sorts of subtle distortions which no one ever seems to appreciate, but destroys good sound.
On my on designs i typically allow each chassis to either float or be grounded. Both ways have safety grounds, but one way eliminates a potential loop.
