Question
i have a technics Sl-B2 turn table and i get radio interfearence when i use it. the cd and tape decks work fine and the radio comes in clearly.all of this is hooked up to a pioneer platform(if thats what you call it) the stylus broke so i replaced it with an original one do you know what i can do to eliminate the interfearence
Radio interference is mostly, although there are many causes, from improperly wired and grounded phono cartridge and/or missing ground line from tone arm to the chassis of the platform/preamp.
Check the wiring if the cartridge and if there is no ground line between tt and amp inputs you should add one.
Then if radio interference persists do some googling as there are many sites that talk about various techniques and remedies.
Best wishes.
