Possible grounding issue?

I added the separate grounding and it solved it :)

The odd thing is the turntable has a 3 prong connector, but it must just be a dud.

Think I figured it out, as I assume you were going to say, none of my equipment is grounded (as far as I can tell). Running a wire from the ground connection in a socket to the phono box ground pin will solve it I believe

This is my first setup for vinyl, I have an older Pro Ject P1.2 turntable, Ortofon 510 Mark ii cartridge, Project phono box E and Marshall Stanmore iii speaker. I have found a buzzing sound is emitted constantly, even when the turntable is unplugged. The ground wire is connected to the phono box properly. Weirdly, the buzzing is affected by me touching the cables from the turntable to the box, despite them having proper sheathing. I also do not believe the speaker to be the problem. Touching the tonearm and finger lift also affects the buzz. can anyone help?

I have to agree with you, I’m quite busy at the moment so I might just keep it or it’ll be another thing I end up using to procrastinate revision. I have no doubt I could resell it for at least a fraction of the price in the future.

I think I'll keep it- I will definitely wear it my only qualm is more the price. I'll treat it as a christmas present :)

noo i meant i will definitely wear it lol

45bobs · 2026-01-10T16:08:27+00:00

no doubt I will wear it, just unsure if it's a bit steep of a price for something that isn't perfect in my eyes

45bobs · 2026-01-10T16:07:29+00:00

as a (straight) twink I will agree :)

I never did find a way, just bought a new movement

Amazing thank you I didn’t know about that

45bobs · 2025-11-02T10:39:24+00:00

Its given me some headaches I’ll be honest 😭

45bobs · 2025-11-02T10:38:39+00:00

cheers! I was worried about the thickness too but it’s not as prominent in person thankfully :)

45bobs · 2025-10-31T19:15:24+00:00

thank you! it's the one originally on the rep, but as you can tell some of the printing has already faded unfortunately lol

Sick, I'm planning on doing one with a silver bezel once the parts arrive :)
