Rega Planar 3


Well, just picked up a Rega Planar 3 last week at my local shop. Really started to like it with the stock cartridge until I noticed a hum that got louder as I move the tonearm closer to the spindle.
Dropped it off at the shop, they agreed their is a hum. They changed the cartridge, same hum. They are contacting Rega Monday to figure it out.
Hope this tt wasn't a mistake.Anyone else hear of this?

The hum is caused by the motor, and I ignore it because it's loudest beyond the grooves where it doesn't matter. I don't hear it on playback after recording.
