    Default Technics SL1210 - Grounding Issue

    Where does one ground the tonearm cable to the chassis on the above?

    I have arseloads of static coming from the plates after playing and wonder if this is the issue?

    1210>>denon dl300>>micro seiki ma-202>>audio origami lead>>tron convergence

    All advice gratefully received.

    I seem to remember that the original is grounded on the pitch slider.

    There is one that comes down from the arm tube and this goes to the small circuit board. This then goes out along side the RCA plugs. The other black wire earths under the pitch slider bolt.
