Sorry, hit send by accident.
3: Insufficient contact at connections. Clean all contacts. Check for improper contact os connector damage.
4: Preamp ware or damage. Bad capacitors, tubes, oxidized tube contacts are all potential causes. DC leakage usually causes popping rather than buzzing, but have the unit checked. A broken internal wire or poor internal connection can cause the buzzing. An aging or damaged cartridge can cause the problem.
Hope the protocol gives you some ideas on how to investigate root cause. Good luck.
