Near the end of the video but it may not have been that clear. I place a silicone pad under the eject motor, one that was thick enough to put pressure on the motor but no so thick it was bending the disc transport (and that was the only spot that made a difference) as that was the source of the noisy resonance from unbalanced discs. It is a cheap lightweight player and I put a relatively heavy piece of audio gear on top to further dampen the noise. This fix will not make it like a $1000 Audiophile/Cinephile player. but will make it quiet enough to be usable. And it supports Dolby Vision which is why I am keeping it and getting rid of my Samsung 4K players as Samsung does not support Dolby Vision on it's players or TV's.
Great information thank you
✌️
1st! Glad to be watching. 🎸
Second!
Could you share your long term results? And where exactly you placed the foam on the underside of the drive? Thanks.
