Siv said:This is probably a stupid idea but... you have a DJ mixer alread so why not continue using that and plug the line out into on of the Behringer channels?
I know that some big mixers like this have replaceable channels and you can specify some to include phono preamps. Have you investigated this?
Lastly, even if you're not actively using the DJ mixer then just hide it under the table and run the earth wires to it to get rid of the hum. Waste of a mixer but a short term solution to the hum.
