Hi, I don't hear any 100hz or 120hz hum on my cs5000 even when the tt not moving with the needle on the vinyl. I'm using a Grado zf3 cartridge and needle. Thanks

First check that the cable going to input is alright. Then if sounf is still the same it could be the needle or cartridge. I used Grado ZF3 on my cs5000 which sounded so beautiful. Hope this help.

Hi I have the Grado ZF3 cartridge and needle which have a great life like sound.

if you're going to all that effort, you should move the mains transformer to an external case. apart from the EM radiation, the one they use gives off a 100Hz (or 120Hz) audible hum that you can hear through your speakers if you stop the turntable, but leave the needle on the disc.

hi! Can anyone help me? I have this exact turntable but the sound is awful! What would you recommend?

[seankaty]

they are going on ebay for over 500 dollars now. I have two. I think I bought mine in 1988 for 550 or 600 .

In my opinion that is one of the best semi-automatic belt drive turntables. I started listening to my CS-5000 again ( and wonder why I ever stopped ).

Thank you! My heart skipped a beat when I found it. I almost bought it new in 1992 but the only store in Montreal who had one left wanted $800 ($200 over the $600 retail price) so I passed. 17 years later, I hit the jack pot! :D

You got that for TEN BUCKS? An absolute steal. The specs on that turntable are better than a lot of tables costing ten times as much when this was on the market. It's a great turntable. Enjoy..

[aldiakaroofus]

Thanks. The last two went for $222 (damaged lid) and $285. Mine is near mint with only surface scratches on the lid. My best yard sale purchase of the past 15 years.

Putting a Grado on this TT sounds like a great match! I have a Grado on my Linn Axis so I know what kind of sound it can deliver. Thanks for the info!
