I concur with Keis, it's the cantilever/cartridge motor, being amplified by the phono stage. Mine has picked up what seems to be an AM Cuban American station. I had to kill that dictator down there, just to get them to shut up...haven't had any problems after that.
Phono Preamp acting as a Tuner. Help!
I am using an EAR 834P. I can easily pick up a radio station (CBC 1) which is clearly audible through my Totems. The problem is that I don't own a tuner! I've tried many different interconnects, ferrite clamps, power cords and the Original Cable jacket, but none of these seem to eliminate the weather report. Much to my delight I had a breakthrough yesterday: with my ear to the woofer, I reached over to reposition the 834P and much of the sound disappeared. I then covered as much of the top as my hand would allow and the noise was reduced even further. Does anyone use any device by VPI or whomever else manufactures magic bricks or stones that might eliminate unwelcome RFI?
