    Vintage Sony TTS 3000 - 45 Spinning too fast ! Help me diagnose the problem...

    Hello! I'm helping a friend repairing his beautiful vintage Sony servo TTS-3000. The problem is only on the 45rpm side: it spins way too fast, at around 75rpm. 33 is working perfectly. Under the unit there's a screw to adjust the speed of both 33 and 45. The 33 allows some small adjustments...

    Hello all, My TT has been rock solid for a long time. Tonight however the speed was off. I tried adjusting the pitch dial, but even when turned all the way right(?) it’s still a little too fast and the strobe is walking slowly to the left. It stays locked in at this speed, but it’s too fast...

    Help - belt drive speed adjustment busted?

    TT is a Realistic Lab-290. It was playing a bit fast so I went to adjust it. As I toyed with it some hardware broke off (pictures attached). Is this something I can fix or do I need a technician on this?

    Thorens TD 160 (spindle size and 45rpm speed problem)

    Hi guys, I have recently purchased a really nice TD 160 turntable. I've got it all set up and am super happy with it, except for 2 issues. 1. The spindle is really, really tight on some records. Not all of them, and it doesn't seem to care what decade the records were produced in. Some...
