    AR XA Problems - Platter too slow

    So one day not long ago, I was listening to a record and all of sudden the platter slowed way down. Since then I've changed the belt twice, applied talc, re-oiled everything, and tried different outlets, but I still can't get the platter up to playing speed. On top of that, when I drop the...
