Sitting in a faculty office during a quarter break, enjoying the quiet, a faculty member was launched about a meter into the air by the sudden sound of a loud concrete drill directly above his office. After a brief and loud burst, there was again quiet for long enough for him to settle down to work and then another sudden loud burst of noise.
Definitely more hum than my last turntable. I like my music loud and when I turn up the amp, the hum is so loud that is actually competes in decibel with the grooves of the record. I understand that some hum is expected, but this overbearing LOUD hum. I was thinking the RCA/grounding wire attached to the TT could have gone kind of sour.
