sibilence in right channel on occasion


Every so often when a singer sings an 's' i also hear it almost separately and louder in the right channel. It doesn't always happen but I notice it often.

Is this the record? The stylus? something else?

Its most probably the record. You could switch the L vs. R leads and check it out that way if you suspect the cartridge.
Interconnect and power cabes are the most common cause of this. What cables are you using?

I would also check that your speaker drivers are torqued correctly. Snugging up the screws on several of my speaker's drive units has alleviated small issues.

I had this issue with some vinyl as well. I adjusted the azimuth and added a better isolation system to my TT. This solved the sibilance and slight white noise in one channel.
