Disabling the speed control on a Thorens TD 125 MKII
That is definitely what it seems like.  I am bringing the Walker back tomorrow.  Probably pick up a Phoenix Engineering Road Runner tachometer which I just tried, to dial in the speed accurately.  Thank you for the input. 
rush hemispheres great music
Rush is my all time favorite band.  I have several albums still from high school that are in my possession.  Unfortunately, I found that my 2112 was somehow cracked almost in half.  Since then I have picked up an older copy and the new 180 gram re...

Phono Hum w/ Pro-Ject Debut III

Phono Hum w/ Pro-Ject Debut III
The interconnects are the stock ones that are pre-mounted from the factory on the Debut III. I didn't know if there was a way I could "shield" them myself? without having to install or solder better ones in myself. 
Phono Hum w/ Pro-Ject Debut III
As far as the cartridge, it is a brand new Ortofon 2M Blue. The hum was present with the old Ortofon OM-5E as well.
