    Lenco L62 VS Pro-Ject RPM4

    Hi All, I have owned the Lenco L62 for just about a year now (and this is my first turntable). Recently I've gotten a lot of popping sounds while playing records. If I play around with the wires behind the turntable it may quite them down. Conversely I blew fuses, twice already (!!!) in my...
