Another "kinda-newbie" head scratcher


No matter what Phonostage I use, no matter which cartridge or cables, I get an annoying distortion sound from my speakers kind of like the sound of AM in between stations if anyone here is old enough to remember that sound. Doesn't happen on the digital side. 

 

Any ideas?

@ericrhodes1 excellent! Glad to hear you resolved it all. 
how’s the sound with the Vibe compared to Parks?

@audphile1 

Thank you Sir! I’ll give relocating the unit a try.

Q. Is there any negative reasons for running my turntable (McIntosh MT10) through my primary preamp (McIntosh C2600)?

@gjfalls other than sound quality no. I have to say the MP100 is a fantastic phono stage. I love how it sounds. Have McIntosh fix it. It’s worth keeping. 

@audphile1 definitely more analog. 🤣But it doesn't cut out all the pops and clicks like the WaxWing.
