    VPI HW-19 Mark IV identification and cart/stylus recommendations…

    Hey y’all, I picked up this beautiful VPI turntable and am currently having it serviced by my tech. I have a few questions as this is my first experience with a VPI turntable 1. What’s a good cartridge/styli recommendation for this table and AudioQuest tonearm? I had a spare Lafayette t6000...

    Reloop platter on Technics 1200mk2

    Howdy guys and happy new year! Long shot here... I have come across a few old 1200mk2's. Currently restoring them, 2 to keep and 2 to sell. The worst bit on all 4 are the platters, beyond restoring due to bad oxidation. Magnets are fine. I have purchased two OEM for the ones for sale but I just...

    Kenwood KD-650 Bearing Question

    I recently bought a Kenwood KD-650 turntable and love it! However, I suspect that the bearing might need work. When I bring the platter up to speed at 33 1/3 rpm and then power it off (bypassing the electronic braking) the platter spins for maybe 10 seconds before coming to a halt. Compare...

    PL-41 Platter Dimensions + Mounting

    Hey-o everyone, I'm currently working on repairing a PL-41, and a lot of the posts here have been super helpful (thrust pad, replacement belt, cartridge recommendations etc.), thank you. The only problem is, my PL-41 doesn't have a platter. I have access to a machine shop, so I figured I could...

    Platter for Pro-Ject Perspective?

    Since my Platter on the Perspective Anniversary is toast, I'm gonna need a new one. Haven't heard back from Pro-Ject about the cost for the original one (slim and fancy composite made from metal and vinyl coating), but I fear it's gonna be a joke, like most of their accessory prices. The...

    Dual 1219 platter wobble

    Hello! I finally got my 1219 working enough to enjoy it and I really like the sound (and the cool factor, auto play, signal staying off until it cycles correctly, and more). The only issue is that every now and then the motor doesn't switch off immediately after auto return cycles (but with a...

    Platter Rubbing - Pioneer PL-514

    Hi, This one is baffling me a bit so I thought I'd ask the experts... I have a Pioneer PL-514 which I acquired recently. The platter is rubbing on the black metal plate directly underneath. After a bit of investigation i came to the conclusion that I must have faulty main bearing spindle or...

    Technics SL1700 Won't Spin?!?

    Help! I had a simple repair: switch out the RCA's and ground cables on a Technics SL1700. No sweat. Cable swap was simple and quick. I only removed the feet and made sure I didn't open the bottom up more than the inch I needed to work. Button up, power on------nada. All of the levers seem to be...

    Dual CS-626 turntable platter issue

    Hi guys! I just bought this Dual 626 turntable, and as you can see in the video, the platter is wobbly while moving. However, after correctly setting up the tonearm counterweight, the sound quality is very good, the wobble doesn't affect the music. Do you guys know what the cause of this issue...

    Unusual Turntable Mat

    Does anyone know anything about this mat I came across. It was on a Turntable I bought but it’s not the original mat that came with it. Some type of special mat. It says “Tri Pad EON R&D Corp. Canada” around the inner ring. I attached a couple pictures, since everyone likes pictures. It looks...

    AR-TA XA Platter Height Issue

    Hi All, So I've been doing some minimal refurbishing of a pretty nice TA/XA turntable. One thing that I haven't been able to figure out is why my platter sits higher than it should from the plinth. My understanding is that the spring compression isn't really the issue here, as I've taken...

    Turntable Blues

    My Technics SL-D35 seems to be under the weather. 1. The tone arm doesn't clear the album when it reaches the end, skating across it to get back home. 2. The pitch won't stay in place, so albums often speed up or slow down. 3. The platter seems to be moving up and down too much. No, I don't...
