Regardless of which cartridge you are using, the Project Carbon comes with a metal platter and the problem is due to interaction between the metal platter and your cartridge. If grounding does not help, you can try disconnecting the ground pin-either the blue or green, but this is not a good fix, just diagnostic. The next step would be to replace the cartridge after consulting with Pro-Ject or spending $120 on Pro-Ject's interchangeable acrylic platter upgrade. Historically, chances are good your problem is a Grado cartridge.
Pro-Ject Debut Carbon Noise issue driving me nuts!
I have a problem with my Turntable humming ONLY when the stylus is on the album. As the volume goes up, the hum is more noticeable. Once I lift the stylus, it’s quiet as a church mouse.
ive tried new cables, verifying the grounding, setting the table ona block ...nothing. I don’t think it’s a grounding issue so I’m at a loss. Does anyone have any ideas?
thanks!
