VPI SDS owners-

I check the speed with the appropriate strobe every 4-6 weeks, or when I make a cartridge change. It was initially set at 60.12 when I got it (about a year ago). I would say I had to lower the speed 5 or 6 times since I got it. It now runs at 59.53 HZ to be spot on. Anyone know why this is happening? Should I be concerned? Turntable is the original VPI Aries1.

Sounds like an isolation issue, that is over time your table is moving around a tad. Slight movements when you change the cart... just a thought. Btw I have the same table and my SDS is always spot on. I also use a 1000g clamp. Both the table and the SDS have their own stand. I can wrap the table hard with my hand while playing an album and you don't hear it...

Go figure.
