Hum with phonograph only??
#4

As far as I can tell, there are no grounding problems. Everything is connected and I've check all the new caps to make sure connections are solid.

As far as turning up the volume to hear the record better -- I would have to say yes. I probably due to have to give it some power to hear it better.
It does have a brand new needle but the cartridge is the old one. When I put my hand near the cartridge/needle, the humming gets louder.

I'm not sure if the cartridges are readily available for this 53-1750. I would have to check.

Mike
