Measure My Turntable Speed

I've been told that a very accurate way to measure the speed of a turntable is by using a test meter set to khz, placing the positive terminal into one of the outputs of the phono stage (or tape output), the other to the ground and then play a 1000hz test track of our a good quality test record... If the table speed is good, the reading should be very close to 1khz...

Ever tried this one?

Perfectly happy and if I can't tell the difference, you can't.

>>can someone tell me in down to earth terms why you must spend 90 some dollars for a strobe??????<<

KAB can.

But you don't need that thing. A strobe disc and fluorescent light are all that's required.

A paper disc and fluorescent light are all that's required.

You don't need the overpriced KAB toy. That's quite simple.

Get it?
