In Reply to: How much turntable hum to expect? posted by petercapo on December 30, 2014 at 15:13:39:
I have negligible amount of hum at 12 and 3, but when music is playing it's a non issue. But I have a 70 year old house with 30 year old wiring, and 4 turntables with a few switch boxes, plus 2 SUTS, several power cords behind everything, etc. I suppose if I only had one turntable and isolated the SUTS better, the hum would be less.
