Yah, I strayed from this forum and read an article from which I took that "stray capacitance" was an issue. I now understand better that EMF from the Hegel's transformer is the problem. The P10's RCA out would need a short extender to get the Aria to its current lowest noise position. Since the interconnects I used to move the Aria to its current position are of the Radio Shack variety, I suspect an 6" extender on the Rega cord wouldn't degrade the signal.
The Aria does only have two pins and the P10/RB3000 has no separate grounding wire to the Aria. The Aria does have its own grounding post, though.
At this point my plan is to distance the Aria from the Hegel as much as practical (under my component rack on the floor), which virtually eliminates the hum. Perhaps not an aesthetically perfect solution, but if it gets the job done without handing out more cash for a better shielded phono stage; or a "better" pre/amp set-up (god forbid. I love my Hegel), then I'll be happy with the result. It's the music that matters.
