Terres motor assembly with Aries


I was wondering if the Teres motor would work with the VPI Aries turntable. I have had an Aries for a few months now and the motor assembly seems to me overly loud. I had a Basis 1400 turntable in my system for a few months and its motor was much quieter. I am having problems isolating the motor vibrations from the turntable. It’s a decent turntable but that along with the arm (JMW 10) has me thinking about a few things. I am thinking about replacing it also, but not sure about that yet. Anyway, any insight, comments, ect are appreciated.

For the interested parties I have a Grado Sonata, Lehmann Black Cube, Classe CP60, McIntosh MC300, and Thiel CS3.6. All ICs and speaker cables are Cardas Golden Cross except for Aries to Cube, just generic IC; haven’t taken the time to get one yet :( I am thinking about upgrading the phono preamp and changing out the Sonata for the Virtuoso Wood. Any thoughts on this or anything else are always welcome. I always enjoy your comments and ideas. They give my “food for thought”.

You guys are great! Happy holidays!
