Speed accuracy- how accurate is accurate?


Certainly, running at 33.333333333333 . . .  with a stylus in the groove is ideal. Running an iPhone app I just discovered (RPM), I'm running about 33.55 or 33.56. Table is an LP12 with an 18 year old Lingo. Everything sounds OK- is it ok?

"Running an iphone...33.55"

I trust my ears over an iphone. Other than a constant,real time,calibrated Phoenix type controller contraption, all those "apps" are going to vary.

Even then, neurosis continues.

Try playing a recording with music in standard A440 tuning. Possibly every  album will be different plucking a guitar or playing the note on a piano as reference.
