It's absolutely fine, I never took your comments to mean otherwiseYes I noticed the cartridge tags looked rather like new Cardas stuff and
it generally looked nice quality to me.
I didn't want to hint at any unprofessional acts in any way,
I just stated what I would to if presented with such prob from zero..
Dedicated arm earth it seems to be then..a problem many early Rega arms share as far as I know..
Very nice arm and deck btw.
I think you may have hit on the issue with the good contacts for the earth wires. I only have a bit of bare wire on hand here but the firmer I screw it on the less the hum. I think with a really firm connection from a good quality earth wire with tags (just ordered one) things could improve dramatically.
