Hi, Not that I can notice, if you turn the volume all the way up maybe. I will check it again today.

That one was NIB when I bought it.

Thanks,
John.

Great looking table John! :thmbsp:

The Grado shouldn't hum on the AR. Synchro motor is opposite the arm and the platter is non-inductive aluminum.

Very Nice ! Simple and VERY PRETTY !

Don't be so sure. My AR hummed very slightly with a Grado Green in the headshell. It never hummed with any other cartridge that I used with it.

How to you clean the records without the dust cover? A record brush? I've been looking at my table and it looks way darn better without the translucent-smoke acrylic half-box attached to it.

Works great still, all original except Grado Black.

Which model Sansui is that?

I just picked up a AR XA as well, paired up with my 5000x.

I get sibilances with my grado red on my XA, do you get clean sound all the way to the inside tracks? I've tried different tracking, and it is record dependent, but I've read it's common with this combo. Have you experienced this?

That is a 5000A, it has the board upgrade and all. Cleaned up nice.

I will have to check further on the sound, I don't seem to hear anything off, great TT.:yes:

What is your VTF?:scratch2:

Thanks,

It sounds good all the way through on mine, I do have a Hum at higher volumes, test with arm at rest and volume up platter not turning.

Thanks,
John.
