Had a steady hum through my tube system. Finally pinpoint it to ground wire from TT.When ground wire is removed from grounding peg on the phone stage the hum is gone.The sound stage just opens up, beautifully quiet. Is there any problem running the TT this way??
Just to add... there is no danger of shorting anything out with the loose ground wire. The worst that could happen, if the bare end touches something, is to re-create another ground loop and thus produce a usually harmless but annoying hum.
