Spin to Win
I know it’s really not much, comparatively speaking, but I was gifted this Sanyo q40 by my Son-in Law. He found it at a thrift store for $6.00. He knew I was into vinyl, so he picked it up for me.
Initial play showed it was not holding speed. Wavering pretty badly.
I took the motor out and lubed it. I also lubed the tracks for the automatic mechanism.
Works good now. Holds wow under .1 and all auto function work perfect. It drops the needle a bit hard for my liking, but I see there is an adjustment for that. Haven’t got to that yet.
It does have a dust cover, but it’s missing one hinge, so I left it off for the photo.
It actually is a surprisingly decent sounding table, for what it is.
