VPI HW19MKIV huming motor
Mine did the same thing. First plug the motor directly into the wall to make sure it is the SDS and not the motor. Then cycle the SDS on & off a couple of times and see if you can get the table to run at 45rpm. Mine eventually started to work ... 
Small integrated for Silverline Minuets
I am using one of these in my office driving a pair of Silverline Preludes with a Velodyne sub. I upgraded the tubes and it sounds great, built like a tank. http://www.teconaudio.com/model_SE43i.html 
Bi-wire Silverline Prelude II: Is it worth it??
I have the same speakers and use 6' Zu Libtec cables with Ibis jumpers, the Libtecs hooked to the lower posts. I suggest trying some Analysis jumpers. 
Prefered Freight Company

Jolida JD-9A Phono Stage Hum Problem

Jolida JD-9A Phono Stage Hum Problem
Thanks for your responses. I am in the USA and it is not ambient, amplified thru the speakers. I have tried weighting the top of the unit and surrounding the case with metal, nothing stops the hum but my bare hand grasp. As I recall, the (4) trans... 
how to use gain control on a preamp
If memory serves, I set the left/right gain so that the normal listening range of the volume knob falls in the 10:00 to 2:00 position. 
Sub connection
Run the speaker wires from your amp to the speaker inputs of the sub. Now run a new pair of wires to your speakers from the sub's speaker outputs. Use the crossover & volume controls to match your speakers.
