Bought a Rega planner 3 with elys 2 cartridge about 3 years ago. Intermittent loud hum on right Chanel. Would disappear if turned motor on and off
Upgraded to an exact cartridge in hope it would go away. It did not. After looking over internet decided to get the arm rewired with silver cabling £275.00. Sounds great but hum was still present.
Spent an age fiddling with electric meters and earth cabling. Hum disappeared completely when a separate earth was fitted from the base of the arm as it goes through the plinth. However there is a hum from the motor which gets louder as it gets to the middle. Annoying but not speaker blowing as the previous hum. Perhaps someone may be able to help how I could resolve this.
Tried emailing Rega direct as they should know. However no contact email on website. Strange in this day and age. Probably should go through dealer however why do I need to bother a busy dealer who will I assume simply pass on email. Perhaps the Rega reresentative who regularly posts on these forums may be able to advise.
