Linn LP 12 hum not coming from Bryton phono stage.
@daveyf  - I'm glad to hear you say that the Bryston Phono stage is really good. I don't have much to compare it to other than the one in my old NAD pre-amp. The gain on my MM only stage is a bit lower apparently than is should be because on some ... 
Linn LP 12 hum not coming from Bryton phono stage.
Thanks for the replies, the cartridge is a Linn K9 MM. I did move the table to the other end of my double wide equipment stand. It definitely hums when playing music - which kind of stinks because my digital system is dead quiet. No WiFi or router... 
Recommendation for MM cartridge to fit Linn Ittok LVII arm that will outperform Adikt
Thanks @daveyf You asked earlier about the ground wire and if it was attached to the grounding lug on the phono stage - yes it is. Funny observation about the hum that I am hearing. It will disappear or not be present at times. Other times it will... 
Recommendation for MM cartridge to fit Linn Ittok LVII arm that will outperform Adikt
@chakster  - your recommendations are interesting. I have decided to stick with my Linn K9 cartridge/ Linn Ittok LVll moving magnet combo for right now. You see, yesterday I finally made an executive decision about how to move forward with my upgr...

In the United States, my understanding is that if you buy at least $4,000 USD of Linn Products and order them byJune 30th 2020, you get the Karousel bearing (which I believe they say retails for $895) for “free”. 
Using 15 amp power conditioner and power cords with 20 amp wired outlet.
@jea48 - I’m going to read through the information you provided. I will show it to my electrician. I may have to take notes and write down the names of the types of grounds and the specific cables recommended here in order to get a proper estimate... 
Using 15 amp power conditioner and power cords with 20 amp wired outlet.
I’ll have to look up and see what “10/3“ Romex looks like. Once I find it, I’ll tell my electrician about it and see much it costs & if is available.@djones51: As far as I know, you can order Bryston power amps with a 20amp power cord.  
Turntable power supply/motor’s role in SQ for belt drive TT
@mijostyn - I’m happy for you that you like your SOTA and respect that you moved on from the 3 Linns that you previously owned. If you had done a proper wall mount you would not have had to tiptoe around your apartment. Can we get back to the task... 
10 Awg power cable to Bryston BIT-15 (Torus) power conditioner for less than 250$
Thanks @millercarbon for your reply. The used  Syngergistic Research 10 AWG 1.5 meter power cord I was watching on eBay that was listed for a “buy it now” price of ~$210 sold shortly after I put my original post. Maybe I tipped somebody on this fo... 
Thiel Owners
Does anyone know if Rob @ Coherent Source does ferrofluid replacement for the CS 3.6 tweeter. Or does anyone know the price of a genuine Theil replacement tweeter? 
Backert Rhumba 1.3 OR Modwright LS 100 ?
How do you like your 4b3? Also, which preamp are you currently using? 
Bryston Amp Experience Needed
This is exciting! I for one, look forward to your review of the 4Bsst3. 
Ferrofluid questions.
I suspect these tweeters are out of production. If you could purchase replacement tweeters of the exact spec they would surely be more than $100! These speakers are at least 30 years old. The sound is still quite good. I’m just wanting to perfect ... 
Ferrofluid questions.
thank you @erik_squires . What does VC stand for?The fasteners for the tweeter are exposed right in front of the speaker and then there is a triangular plastic guard covering the dome tweeter with more accessible fasteners. I saw a few you tube vi... 
Anyone using a wadia 170i?
I have a 171i with a wall wart. I could benefit from this. I don’t know how to PM you on Audiogon. Is it still available? From, Bill in Dayton, OH.
