skipping tonearm

    Frustrating problem with skipping had an unusual cause

    I have a Realistic LAB 440 as my main table, and I noticed it occasionally skipping on pristine records, with the same cartridge and tracking settings that always worked before. It got gradually worse, until I stopped using it, and set aside some time to try to figure out what was going on. That...

    P-Mount woes (crazy skipping and looping)

    About a week or so ago, I got myself a JVC AL-A158 P-Mount turntable with an Audio Technica 1001 cartridge. Specs wise, it was quite impressive (doubly so considering it is a cheap looking belt drive). 0.04% wow and flutter, 67db signal to noise ratio. When I tested it's speed, it was pretty...

    Issues with skipping on inner grooves and dead wax.

    Hey everyone. I just upgraded from a Jelco SA-750D to a TK-850S and I'm running into a problem. Since installing the new arm a couple days ago, I've found that records are prone to skipping in the inner grooves. Also, rather than tracking through the run off toward the label, the stylus jumps...

    Questions about a Dual 522 anti-skate mechanism...

    Greetings. I was unable to resist purchasing a "newly serviced Dual 522, belt-drive turntable for my wife, so she would finally listen to her vinyl records. (she will not touch a manual or semi-manual, like my Project Carbon SB Esprit). After mounting a new Ortofon Super 10, previously tested...
