Well, my dad has finally decided to get out the old amp and turntable and record his LP's onto CD by recording to his computer. They're both these really old Pioneer things. Really cool-looking too! I believe I posted about the turntable a while back actually. So we have the turntable hooked into the amp (for power) and then are running the RCA's to mini to my dad's computer. The problem is that when the stylus thingie hits the LP we get this terrible hum. In fact, whenever it's active there's this annoying hum. Is the cartridge busted or something? I tried plugging it directly into the wall so I could listen via my headphones and amp but that only produced another buzz that was active even when the turntable was off! So I don't think the amp is the problem here, but it seems like the turntable is. Got any suggestions to fix the problem? I can give you more specific into and pics and stuff if you need it.
