The background noise is only present when the stylus hits the vinyl - so
I guess its not a ground issue? Does it sound excessive?

My first & last reply to you. I'm actually trying to find out if I have
faulty or badly set up equipment. I'm not trying to dis' vinyl or
anything like that.

YOUR absolutely asinine 5 minute MP3 demonstrates nothing at all -
except the fact that vinyl is noisy.

I can hear the same 50Hz component on all the records I've tried , but oddly enough only
when the needle drops right into the groove. When its skating just prior
to dropping in the groove no noise.

**** the hell off - you BLOODY idiot.

You are clearly a very special person.
