I have had a Rega P5 turntable with a Rega Exact cartridge for about four years. It has had no problem in the time I've owned it, until two weeks ago when it started sounding "shrill." The highs are not smooth and are accentuated and "sharpened," to the point that listening is difficult. There is no issue with my amp, preamp, or speakers, because output sounds fine via my cd player. My phono stage is a Graham Slee Era Gold V, which again I have owned for about four years with no issues. Any ideas on what could be causing the shrill sound quality?
Thanks,
Mike
