      A low hum or buzz during playback on your Technics Music Mixer could be due to a fluorescent light or other electrical appliances, or their power cables being too close to the connecting cables. Move these items as far away from the unit as possible. Also, check if the turntable’s grounding wire has been disconnected and ensure it is securely connected.
