Noticed no ground element

Tried to give it a bit of a jiggle with tweezers and noticed the blue attachment came off really easy. Thought I fixed it by re-attaching it and bending it shut cause it was loose. Now there is just a large buzzing going on without playing anything I might have made it worst.

That makes sense comparing to broken springs. I am not sure if I am getting the best out of it or if it damaged maybe I need to take it to an expert. I play a lot of records it is all I do with it and sounds ok but not great. I am keen to have a good sounding setup but don't really want to spend...

Thanks for the reply, I am a hi-fi novice so sorry in advance. I think it is Magnetic Coil as it is louder when on that amp setting. Attaching photos for reference. Also as it was a gift not sure what cartridge it is rocking. Any thoughts on what amp would work best for this setup?

I originally bought that amp because I needed one to power the turntables Magnetic Coil. Do you have any suggestions for new or second hand amps that would work with MC?

I bought the amp second hand and it worked in the shop. Noting I just took it back to the guy I bought it from on the weekend and he tested it, and the turntable and said it was working when he tested it. Now I am confused maybe your suggestion wth the tweezers could work well

Good idea thanks, now who has a CD player haha
