I have a technics sl 1300 and recently i noticed that my records started to sound grainy and not as clear as before. So i went and did some process of elimination. I played various genres of music classical Latin jazz Arabic everything seemed muddled and grainy . When i switched over to cd though the sound was much cleaner and the same with the radio . I tried two different amps and a different phono stage. A rotel ra 970 bx which is a not so great candidate because it definitely has Fade Out On One Channel and overall just needs to be fixed but when it's in its sweet spot it sounds fine. The other was a pioneer sx 535. So what I'm wondering is could it possibly be the turntable I removed the headshell and needle pulled it out took a look , put it back in. could it be the RCA's??? Or something else
Been wanting to upgrade to a better table so I'm wondering if now is the time or is this a simple fix.
I have one more amp i could run it through but im really startimg to think its the table
