Raven One Motor Noise Problem

I've just received my Raven One and have not played an LP because I'm waiting to get my amp back from CJ.

When it's quiet in my room, I can hear the motor when standing in front of the TT at 33rpm...Not noisy but audible. When I switch the speed to 45rpm it's dead silent but the noise comes back switching to 33.

Has anyone experienced this with their Raven?

If i put my ear very close to the external motor controller case like 1cm away, i can just hear a very faint noise.

As for the motor noise itself, i have no problem.

Nice to hear of the problem resolution.

Now that's sorted, can you tell us a bit more about the Miyajima Shilabe cartridge you'd mentioned many a moon ago? What arm did you decide on in the end?

Yes . Running it in very slowly , may be just under 20 hour as of last night. I noted substantial improvement at 10 hour and it's continuing to improve.

I was hoping you could tell me what's ahead with more hours logged. Anyway I'm glad you are finally enjoying your long awaited new setup. Expect the sound to become more alive and fleshed out. :)
