RE: TD160 Hum suggestions (Yes, another new post)

Is the hum in one channel only or is it in both channels? If rearranging the cartridge wires reduced the hum, my guess is you have a broken wire -- maybe more than one broken wire. Or, perhaps you have dirty contacts.

You say you lubed the contacts. Perhaps they are still dirty. You might want to buy some Caig products for cleaning and enhancing electrical connections. I use Caig DeoxIT Gold on all my connections. It really works.

Good luck,
John Elison
