It was just a thought. Based on what you described, it sounded characteristic of a bad cv joint. Sometimes a noise can sound like its coming from one area, when in actuality its originating from another. In any case, I trust your judgement .

p.s. A remote possibility could be a tire that isn't properly "seated". I've seen in the past, tires that were poorly mounted, resulted in a similar strange noise, whereby the sound also increased and decreased with acceleration. Again, just another thought.
