VPI Aries 300 RPM motor - Humming

Hi
Has anyone got problem with humming problem with the new VPI 300 rpm motor? I replaced the original 500 rpm motor on my Aries 1 with this newer motor, for $140. Very annoying and can't seem to make it go away. Pls help??

They will take calls Tuesday through Thursday. He is great to deal with. I am sure he will tell you how to fix it or he will make it good. If you don't have their number, it is listed under the manufacturer's listing on Audiogon.

Someone there is, however, answering E-mails, as I just went through the process of contacting VPI.
