Magic Eraser as Isolation Feet


Yes, it's another Magic Eraser thread. But this one is different.

One of the gripes I've had with my Teres turntable is the slight mechanical hum from the Verus motor controller. Regardless of what DIY solution was underneath (or atop) the controller, I still could hear a *very* faint humming / buzzing from the controller.

That is...until I tried using Magic Eraser as isolation feet. I also placed enough weight on top of the controller to slightly compress the Magic Eraser. This helps damp the top of the controller, but using the Magic Eraser as feet alone did the trick. The mechanical noise is *completely* gone. Dead silent.

Is there anything this stuff can't do?

Magic eraser is made of melamine foam. I found this stuff online at $60 per 2" thick 2x4 feet sheet with Wikepedia saying that it has been used for years for sound insulation. Do you think it would work under 150 lbs speakers as an isolator?
Lol Elizabeth ....very funny.
I actually use a Camambert as a record clamp.
I'm really glad I've never cleaned my records on a cleaning machine......wouldn't want to get rid of any mould release.
I use cheese under my turntables for various types of music.

Monterey- mostly for California based bands
Limburger- for lousy recordings
Canadian Cheddar- Rush, Neil Young, Tragically Hip
Muenster- German classical
Provolone- Opera
Brie- DeBussy, Dukas
