Rega Planar 3 humming issue

[Jegal]

I'm planning to buy a Rega Planar 3 (2016) but recently I read that it has humming issues when the arm is getting closer to the center of the lp. I'd like to know if somebody has had same issue.

This is a pretty well documented issue with some non shielded phono carts (like Grado for example). I don't have this problem on my Planar 3 with a Rega carbon cart which is a rebadged Audio Technica 3600L model. I guess is depends on the cart but I think AT and Rega carts are pretty safe.
