Turntables

@gshepardbuster- I can put it on a different outlet which is a totally different circuit. It’s just not dedicated with upgraded outlets like my main. Also, what ground are you mentioning may have come loose? The one from the table to the pre phono is tight. Is there another I’m not aware of?

@paulcreed I will try leaving the pre on 24/7. As for the cables crossing the power cords, that’s not an issue. I will be poking and prodding pretty much all day tomorrow. Thank you guys for the input. Greatly appreciated!

Luvrockin, ran into friend at a party last night that I knew owned Rega p6 and p10 years ago and I mentioned your problem. ( noise gets louder as headshell moves toward spindle) He had same problem with p6 and said it is well documented. So it's not  just you. One thing it could be is motor is not well shielded. He mentioned adding adhesive foil shielding tape over the hole by the motor( this is what rega did with p10). Could also be tonearm is not grounded, there is a wire inside the the tonearm that sometimes comes unsoldered but you have to unscrew end stub off and re solder. From what I understand you can take a wire and touch it to head shell screws or tonearm and ground it to Preamp ground to see if in fact tonearm ground is faulty. You can run a ground from PSU chasis to Preamp ground? Please research this before doing that, I don't want to give false information. He said you can try moving power supply as far from motor as possible. If you touch tonearm screws or tag wires going in cartridge or spindle does noise get louder. Also mentioned was Rega cartridges are not shielded very well, really don't know as I'm not familiar with Rega. Since you bought this at a dealer can they help you or maybe get your money back if table is faulty. 

Here's a thread about someone with the same problem including a link to a PS Audio link that might help.

Guys thank you again for your input. Sorry I’ve been away with the holiday. Here’s some things I noticed and things I tried. I brought down my Transparent Audio Ultra cablesand the sound quality is pretty awesome. Some progress made. As for the hum and noise issue with my Rega, I tried isolating power sources, moving the power supply and pre phono with the same issue. The hum and noise level is definitely higher as I move the arm in towards the LP. I found the ground connector had a loose connection, it pulled off in my hand. Ithought this was it but as I connected it direct to the phone pre, it still had the hum. I crimped a new connector on the end of the ground. I have 3 systems in my home. I brought the TT up to my Mc setup which is pretty simple. It consists of a Mx-130 used as pass through 2 channel pre and a MC7300 amp. The MX-130 has a build in phono stage so I didn’t use the Rega Pre phono. Powered the system up and there is still a hum and static pops. I’ll get more into the pops in a minute. I brought the table on to my 3rd system which is a Jolida RC-1000 tube integrated amp. Plugged in the TT along with the Rega phono pre and as strange as can be, there is no hum and the amp noise level through the speakers is minimal. When I mentioned I’d get back to the popping sounds. I have said way back the disappointment of the Norah Jones LP I purchased but I noticed something else and it’s on all 3 systems. When I remove the arm from the album and the arm is in its rest, there are pops and crackles coming through the speakers. There’s no doubt the LP is not a good pressing but I believe some of the pops I’m hearing is the same pops I hear with the needle off the record. The last thing I tried for today was something the seller suggested. I have the TT on the very top of my rack which is right above a power conditioner for my DVD player and projector. He suggested unplugging that unit and sure enough, the hum dropped drastically. The system noise is still exceptionally loud and the crackling and popping when the arm is NOT on the record still exists. Gonna keep poking away.
