Hello.. so I finally got some replacement tubes for my K8. I know Gib did some test cuts with it before shipping it, and it worked then. It seems to crank right up, I hear sound from the head. But my cut, no matter how deep or shallow, just sounds like straight noise.
I'm guessing it might be a grounding issue. Any veteran K8 pros want to throw me some advice?

Why am I hearing only surface noise? K8

Are you sure your stylus is good? If you can hear the music coming out of the head, but the record is just a bunch of noise, that would be what I would guess... try cutting a record with no sound whatsoever. I am not sure if it is possible to totally turn off the amp and still have the turntable running on those, but if it is possible, i'd do that to test the cut.
