Hm, that leaves me stumped.
What about repeating the Boston capture, changing anything that can be changed, before and while capturing ?

MotU 828 -> Firewire -> Mac Mini.
Same mains outlet for MotU and macMini, disconnect Monitor DVI/HDMI mains (pull plug) immediately after capture start, pull monitor power cable...
Shorten inputs of the MotU (or just leave them unplugged), Record that silence.
Plug ProJect RIAA (I would not suggest that one, maybe swap that one out, if you can.)
Output into MotU In, record that silence.
Plug your turntable RCA in, table stillstanding, record that silence.
And so on...
