    Luxman PD-264: Anti-Skating Not Working – AS Dial Moves Rod, No Effect

    Hi all, I’m dealing with an anti-skating issue on my Luxman PD-264. No matter how I adjust the dial (I’ve turned it fully each way), the tonearm consistently pulls toward the center. I see that the anti-skating dial pivots a thin rod underneath. The rod stretches from its pivot point into the...

    Reloop anti-skate problem

    Hello, I have a Reloop RP-1000 MK3 turntable that I have been using for ten years now. I noticed on a calibration record that the anti-skate knob does really a little. When I set it to the maximum amount (7), it slows down the inner movement of the arm, but it still gravitates towards the...

    Dual HS 130 tracking and anti-skate

    Hello everyone, I use a Reloop turntable in my living room, but I recently received an old Dual HS 130 so I am using it instead. It was in a bad shape and I restored it: cleaned, greased, recaped, changed certain pots as well. I also replaced the head and the stylus (with Tonar equivalent of...

    Yamaha YP-211 Anti-skate weight?

    I have a new to me Yamaha YP-211 with a Ortofon Red stylus. The deck needs a new belt which has been tricky to find and it doesn’t have the anti skate line or weight on it. I was thinking about getting some fishing line and a few different sized fishing weights or small metric nuts as the anti...

    Grace G-707 Tonearm: How to Set the Antiskate

    I have recently come to own a Kenwood KD-550 turntable with a Grace G-707 tonearm. I have set it up as best I can carefully following the directions in the manual. I think I have it mostly set up properly, and it does seem to be working well. However the one thing I am not entirely sure of is...

    Weird SL-1200 Anti-Skate Issue

    Hey, guys. I have a Technics SL-1200MK2 and the anti-skate control is acting up really strangely. It seems to function properly, i.e. turning the knob will impart some movement on the tonearm when floating, but any time I turn it above 2 or so, it turns itself back down to a lower number. It...

    I recently ordered the Hitachi PS-12 TT, I haven’t got it yet but I’ve seen some pictures and I wonder how the anti-skate works or how I’ll adjust it. It’s different. I’m new to this so I don’t know that there’s other types of anti-skate. here’s a link to the pictures...

    Reloop 7000 MK2 – anti-skate & tonearm issues?

    I would like to ask for your kind help and opinion on my Reloop 7000 MK2 turntable. I bought one and I found that it adds an unpleasant twang to the drums. It is like the drum twangs something in the turntable. Then I found if I push down the turntable’s top left and right side with great force...

    Tracking problems and occasional distortion - Kenwood KD-2070

    Greetings all. I am new to vinyl and new to the forum. I have recently pulled out my old Kenwood KD-2070 which I have had packed up for the last 20 years or so.

    Onkyo anti-skate not staying in position

    The anti-skate mechanism of my Onkyo CP-1015A isn't staying in the place where I set it. As you can see from the pictures it is a slider mechanism. The slider pulls on a spring that in turn pulls on the tonearm. The spring pulls the slider almost to the "off" position once the stylus hits the...

    Sound very quiet in one speaker

    So I just got my first record setup-a Sansui FR-D3 and a Kenwood KA-5700 and everything seems to be going great (my life is forever changed). However, often times sound coming from specific parts in records (not all of them) will only come from one speaker (the right one) while the left side...
