I also had a strange experience with a project debut table relating to hum.
In my system it was very noticeable even at low volume, in exactly the same setup both a Teac tn200 and funk firm vector v gave absolute ink black silence so not just the setup.
But here is where it gets even odder.
My daughter wanted a vinyl setup so as I had not sold the project (like the OP I did not want to pass along a possibly faulty unit to somebody else), i thought I would give it another try.
All she had was a wall mounted soundbar connected to her multipurpose PS3 (BLURAY, CD. YOUTUBE, PANDORA ETC). the soundbar had rca inputs as well as the dig in she was using.
so bought an el cheapo phono pre from ebay and gave it a try.
in this setup there was just a very faint trace of hum at high volume but at sane levels there was nothing discernible at all.
so one happy daughter and now not $350 wasted after all.
one reason could be there is no other major electronic equipment anywhere near the table in her setup at all?
