direct drive + grado (often) = hummmmmmm
Follow Ups:
I've had both a Grado Black and a Grado Platinum on a 1200mkII that I had at home, and now have two Technics at work, both with Grado blacks and none of them hum.While Grados do hum with some unsheilded motors/tables-- the 1200, in my experience, is not one of them.
I'm guessing the hum is coming from somewhere else in your system.
I have used both the GRADO Reference Platinum and the Signature 8MZ on my DENON DD with no hum at all. No GRADO "dance" either. BTW, the 8MZ sounded to my ears way better than the Ref. Platinum.
