Scott 299 phono stage hum

Tubes Asylum

Questions about tubes and gear that glows. FAQ

63.27.44.136

I've recently finished(I thought) rebuilding this old gem but can't seem to get my TT hooked up properly. When I use the "Mag 1" input I get nothing but loud hum in all selector positions. "Mag 2 High" will give me output but with nowhere near enough gain. "Mag 2 Low" gives nothing but hum in all positions. I've tried various grounding ideas but the hum is very bad and there seems to be no output from Mag 2 low or Mag 1 at all. Also swapped tubes around as well. Question is am I hooking TT up properly or do I have some more work to do on the amp. Sound is great from tuner and cdp, no noise at all.
Thanks in advance, Joe
