buzz from one phono preamp more than another?


My Lehmann black cube se makes way more buzz, enough to be annoying, than my Grado ph-1. The Grado buzzez as well , but just barely. I've been back and forth w/ three prong adaptors, different circuits of my house etc. and have run out of ideas. Except a power conditioner. Would that help? I hate spending a lot of $ on something for no results. I'd just swap them out, but the Lehmann sounds better on my stereo. No hating, I even have a brand new Grado Reference Sonata 1 cartridge($5-600 new) that sounds absolutely killer. Except for the hum on the Lehmann. Any ideas would be much appreciated

Check your cartridge clips if they're connected properly.
Any clip weak or loose?
