Added a ground wire on Rega RB303

I decided this morning to disassemble the arm from my RP6 and add a separate ground lead and disconnect it from the blue wire. I ended up with a complete black background at maximum volume... I should have done that years ago!! The hell it's not as is by default?

Nice work! Pics perhaps?

I didn't think of taking pics while I was soldering, was nervous enough to stay focused on the task! Now all you can see is a gound wire added to the regular RCA cables.

It is because it is not always like in your case. It depends on ground loops flow in your system. When you replace any interconnected component, even reversing 2-pin power plug, it can change.
