By the recommendation of an old thread around here, I just bought an ADC 1500FG turntable off eBay. It said it was in playable condition and all that, but today I have it set up and it really doesn't sound right. I'm cranking the volume knob on my headphone amp way up, and there's still a terrible noise floor, almost masking the music itself. I'm using an old pre-amp with a phono setting as a phono-preamp, so my question is: what went wrong?
