LP's: the measure of off-centre record spindle holes ?

Just saying....

Conservatively, 85% of the vinyl I own is pressed off center. Yes this includes AP pressings sadly.

@gshmd,

My brother.

Points taken. They make sense. I was hoping it would be an added benefit over and above. Thanks guys.

Well I said hopefully.

When an off-center lp rotates, as the cartridge sees it in real time there’s a slight speed offset, IMO. Therefore any cause of speed irregularity could possibly be corrected by a device such as the Eagle/Roadrunner that constantly monitors speed at every rotation.

Maybe a better way to say it is any deflection (tracing error) regarding the cartridge/arm’s ability to trace the lp perfectly will cause some speed irregularity. This is of coarse after I've reamed out off-center records to the best of my ability as stated above.

Yup, can't take um with me....

Zero for me. It's a long source of contention. Hopefully my newly acquired Phoenix Engineering Eagle/Roadrunner set-up will help alleviate this.

I've been reaming out the spindle holes for years to compensate.
