It sounds that in your phonostage has to good (from electrical
perspective between you ground entry from PC to the unit and the main ground terminal
(presumably it would be the ground of your RCA). Some people feel that it
should be 4-6Ga terminal with a loot of cooper in it (as some people call it the
electrons pool) in the way how I did it Milq. I still feel that it is all not
good for phonostages and we in phonstages should not use the wall grounds, it
is juts to duty. So, in my system you will see power cords and broken off off
ground terminal. I connect all my components
with 2 pins not 3 pins and that was I advocated with very begging of this conversation.
Now about your “solution”. As I said. Get a think wire or 2 or 3, connect them
to a single point at ground of your RCA and “touch” different ground locations of you phonostage
of your other elements. In my case I have a wire running from ground of my RCA
to my TT’s tonearm on the other side of my SUT. As you find your configuration
what you have no noise with max up volume juts solder the setting and juts
forget about it. You do not need to understand it or to rationalities it. Who
cares! Make it silent, move over and do not worry about why it does it. You
will find you perfect setting VERY fast if you stop thinking about it and start
juts touching your system with grounded wire at different locations. I do not
advocate to be brainless typically but in this case, I do not feel that understanding
is necessary. You will not have it and only God know why it works in the way
how it works. I was taught by the guys who built high frequency transmitters
and what they do with ground and antennas is an absolute black magic with deny
any understanding. In our case the thing are very simple and our objective is
not best termination of the UHF transition lines but juts killing the auditable
noise, very simple…Rerurn to Romy the Cat's Site
