Low Frequency Rumble from TT between songs
If I place the turntable on it, will it decrease the feedback?  
Low Frequency Rumble from TT between songs
It's definitely different on every record but still there on everything.  I tried moving the speakers away from the table and that for sure lessens the sound. It's clearly an interaction between the two components. The bad part is we live in a sm... 
Low Frequency Rumble from TT between songs
Yeah, it  wouldn't be rumble. Acoustic feedback. But the table's been in the system for a couple years but the speakers have been here for 3 months and the noise only started a few weeks ago. Driving me nuts trying to figure it out.   
How does the VPI Aries II stand up to current mid priced tables?
Late to this but I'm not really a VPI fan EXCEPT the Aries! I have an Aries 1 with a TNT platter that I upgraded with the SOTA Eclipse motor and controller which is a noticeable sound upgrade from any of the VPI controllers. SOTA retrofit the moto... 
How far is your SUT from your Phono Pre/Preamp?
It's pretty well documented that owners have had much better luck with outboard SUTs than the internal Jensens with the Lamm. Lamm has no provision for loading changes and maybe that's the cause. In my case, the SUT is designed for my DL103 varian... 
How far is your SUT from your Phono Pre/Preamp?
Interestingly the SUT in the Lamm is a real weak point. The external, even a relatively inexpensive one like the AnaMighty one I have, is a huge improvement over the Jensen’s inside. I just A-B’d it again this morning and it sound great with the i... 
How far is your SUT from your Phono Pre/Preamp?
I've spent the morning doing a bunch of things, reorienting, finding weird angles, and changing cables to shielded cables. Cables make no difference at all. There's definitely one spot that I found to place the SUT that is the quietest and it's ab... 
How far is your SUT from your Phono Pre/Preamp?
Got it. I'll try other cables today to see if that's what's causing the hum.  
How far is your SUT from your Phono Pre/Preamp?
Yeah, it does sound pretty dang silly. Can I report my own post for being a complete waste of everyone’s time?  
Shielded cable between pre and SET amp
Problem not solved! The external SUT sounds so much better than the internal one that I'm just going to have to get some longer cables.   
Shielded cable between pre and SET amp
Ok, update. The problem was the SUT that was sitting 2 feet from the preamp. Figured that was enough. Moved it 4 feet away, still noisy. Using the built in SUT now. Frankly it's hard to tell a difference. Problem solved!  
Shielded cable between pre and SET amp
Thanks! All great suggestions. Amp definitely not the source. I wasn't aware anyone made a shielded Duelund cable, but I may try to add a shield first just for the fun of the attempt.  
Upgrade SUT For Denon DL103
Thanks Raul. I really don't like to eat beets. You may love them. I think they are a complete disaster so it doesn't matter how you try to prepare them, they are still a disaster. Waste your money on all the seasoning and cooking utensils that yo... 
Upgrade SUT For Denon DL103
Thanks Raul. Remember, we all hear differently and have different tastes in reproduction. There are no absolutes when trying to answer these questions as you seem to be implying.   
Upgrade SUT For Denon DL103
I actually have the AnaMighty SUT. Pretty much the same as the A23. I've yet to hear much of a difference... that's why I'm looking to go a step higher.
