Hum.....??

Tg,
That's just it. I replaced a cheap set of IC's with the Hero's. That's when the hum started. Too bad to. Besides the hum, it sounded better.

maybe the center post on the rca connection is not touching firmly

Aaaarrrggghhhh!

I'm going crazy here. I've tried everything. Reversing plugs, unplugging everything except the amp and the phono pre. No luck. I took the table apart, no problems there, wiring wise. I pulled the wand off, unmounted the arm, checked the wiring. Put everything back together, Now I have basically no right channel. Very distorted and no volume. Dam it!!! It was so close...... The vinyl was bettering CD on many occassions....... Guess I damaged one of those hair like wires in the base of the arm. So now, it's either try to find the problem and fix it, try to re-wire the base of the arm, get a different arm, or just bite the bullet and get a totally different table.

Not a happy camper........

If the hum started when I put a set of cables into my system I would start be removing those cables.
