How are you attempting to use the grounding wires currently? I suspect this has more to do with the tonearm grounding than the plinth grounding. Typically your tonearm ground wire would attach to the phono pre. I would try only using a tonearm grounding wire first and disregard the plinth connection. By attaching both to the same phono pre post you may be creating a loop...and a pop.
Proper Ground for Tonearm and Turntable
Hello all,
My first experience with a high end turntable an Acoustic Signature Triple X has a ground on the plinth as well does the Tonearm have a ground cable attached to the RCA cables. I am getting a pop thru my amp when the needle hits the record even if the amp is muted. Should both the plinth and the Tonearm be grounded to the phonostage? What is the correct way to ground this to eliminate the pop?
