phono at 75 - nothing still

farfetched

I did the phono section test. I play record around ~25 on the volume and I turned that, too, up to 75. (no record playing of course)
It might just be an old audiophiles tale, that such noise matters are intractable and/or inherent.
These amps themselves are an affront to convention.

You can't be playing a record when you have the volume up - Ralph 08:05:54 11/27/24 (1)
And the power supply should be close to the phono section.

I get a distinct tone out of it.

  In which case I'm not getting it.
  
  My tt isn't in my listening room. Run wires through wall, turntable room doesn't share the same foundation, it's just an addition.
  
  More people should put their turntables in a diff room. Not hard to set the cue to be very slow. I can dance while playing an LP.
  
  Amount spent on isolation: zero
