Turntable with stable speed.


Which turntables offer a stable speed? I don't mind if it spins at 33.29 or 33.34, as long as it stays there and does not fluctuate.

I am very sensitive to uneven pitch being created by tables spinning at uneven speeds. Very evident with piano, or any instrument that is holding a long tone.

Which tables now-a-days excel at this?

I strongly disagree about Clearaudio, the DC motor and servo system is one of the worst wow + flutter I've measured. Servo circuits in general are very difficult, you have to pick an error level and time constant. With audio a fast constant gives flutter, slower gives wow, and slower gives too much long term drift. It is the way it is, and higher torque gives no solution. In the Clearaudio case this is played out poorly, (or we could say the weakness of a system like this is demonstrated well) with high speed instability.
