Well the hum I'm hearing on my turntable only appears when the tonearm is engaged (its a Linear Track Turntable) and its not the hum you hear when the ground wire isn't connected its a different frequency of hum altogether (its not a 60 hz hum like you would get with a disconnected ground, it sounds more like a 120 hz hum or something like that.)
And from what I was reading online on sites like Audio Karma (The Sister Site to Video Karma) and the Hoffman audio Forum, that record players with MM cartridges will hum if the right low capacitance wire isn't used.
I do have a shorter 4 foot audio cable that says "Japan" on it, that was probably originally from a turntable, but its too short for the span I need, I need at least 6 Feet of cable to go between the back of the turntable and the back of my receiver, the span between the two is about 6 feet.
Would Wal-Mart have anything?
