I recently bought a Revox B795 turntable. It had belonged to my father in law since new. The table doesn't have many hours on it and he hadn't used it for at least the last five years. It worked good when he last used it. When I powered it up for the first times, the platter didn't turn and a loud hum was present. The platter turns freely. The power light comes on, but then fades out. The hum varies somewhat, but the platter never turns. The power is plug is not polarized. I tried two different outlets. Any help is appreciated.
