VPI noise problem

stringreen, Have different cartridges to try ?

You need to do a better job at describing the issue.

A good place to start would be to lube the motor and the platter bearing.

good idea cleeds...was thinking the same....let you know.   Do you know the proper lube?  thanks

I use VPI's superlube on the platter bearing and a few drops of light oil on the motor. Because your noise is cyclical, those are the the two places I'd examine first.
