The key is the little shock, when you touch the tonearm... the black wire mentioned was NEVER figured out... Where is it grounded.
TT pops can drive you nuts.. I thought it took a resistor to dump a cap to remove noise, when shutting down... Either the resistor is bad OR it doesn't have one hooked up, IN THE RIGHT path when shutting the switch OFF, It may be there in the on position, but gone when you flip the switch, to the OFF position.
You follow my reasoning?It's there but need a jumper or maybe moved to a different common location, to dump the cap that's discharging.. when you flip the switch..
I don't turn switches off when I'm in concert, It just doesn't happen...
VERY bad practice. 30 min motor warmup, and the TT may not get turned off for a week at a time..
My units have platter breaks and litteral gear shifters, to engage and disengage, the platter or the motor..
Volume is always turned down...with an LP flip. ALWAYS.. Dual TT roll one down, and roll one up at the same time, that is DJ 101. Blow the speaker up doing that.. Drop an arm with the volume up.. LOL BAMB... Folks will want their money back...
Regards
