Hope you find the problem very annoying these things to locate and sort out.

Hi buddy maybe you can do a quick test to see if you get the same issue??
Crank the volume up to 11-12oclock then hover the arm and cart over the subplatter/motor spindle to see if you get the same??
Might be useful to see if all Exacts do it or it was an older batch and had now been rectified by rega??
I actually like the exact too
