Re: MMF-5 Test Try this!

I also had quite a bit of motor noise and have done alot of experimenting with this deck.

First remove the feet, they are a lot of the problem. Get a set of Audioquest Big Feet. Then remove three of the rubber grommets between the plinths leaving three in a triangle. Put three Big Feet under the grommets and the other one to the left of the tonearm on the top plinth. You should also check the motor screws. If they are too loose or too tight it will vibrate more. Also drop the pully down closer to the motor. Motor noise is VERY low now.

As far as the hum when the tonearm gets to the center of the platter , its there but you can't hear it when music is playing.
