Sub platter diameter


As a newbie, I am increaingly baffled by platter speed influences.

The first hurdle is the diameter. Is it 4" (exactly), a nominal 4", 101mm or what? Even my cloth ears will tell the difference at 1kHz.

Then the drive belt. If the motor pulley is grooved, surely the effective diameter depends on the belt tension.

Before I plunge into the upgrade whirlpool, I would welcome a few facts.

Anybody please?

AFAIK, there is no standard for subplatter or platter diameter.

Yes, tension matters.
