I have a stock P5, and do not have the hum you describe. Perhaps it is the groovetracer???
Rega Turn Table Hum
I have a P5 and have recently noticed that once the arm/cartridge is at the last song nearing the lable, EMF hum is being introduced I believe from the motor into the cartridge. I never noticed it prior to instaling a groovetracer subplatter, but according to my local Rega dealer they have experienced it using the standard plastic subplatter supplied with the TT.
I would be very interested in hearing from any fellow Rega owners that may have a corrective action to eliminate the hum.
I recently came across (Direct Music Web) a product called ERS cloth which is suppose to block RFI (Radio Frequency Interference) and EMI (Electro-Magnetic Interference). ERS cloth is a blend of carbon fibers coated with proprietary metals that make it virtually impenetrable to RFI. It comes
in 8"x11" sheets.
If any one has any experience with the ERS cloth I would also be gratefull for your input.
Thnx
