| Thoughts On Turntable Clamps And Weights I contacted Pro-Ject regarding clamps and weights but did not receive a response. | |
| Thoughts On Turntable Clamps And Weights Thank you for the interesting and thoughtful responses. From what I gather, locking the vinyl to the platter, with either a weight or clamp, is helpful to a point. But more force does not necessarily equal improved performance. | |
| Thoughts On Turntable Clamps And Weights Thanks for the info. I was wondering about the use of weights regarding motor and bearing strain as well. | |
| Turntable Thrumming Thanks for all of the advice. I'll remove the belt and see what happens. | |
| Turntable Thrumming How do I check for either of these? | |
| Turntable Thrumming I started working from the amp to the turntable to find the noise, and discovered that once I removed the lid from the turntable it went away. I had played records with the lid up, which seems to have amplified the noise. | |
| Turntable Thrumming It is cycling at about one cycle per two seconds. The actual sound is probably 500 Hz or so. | |
| Turntable Thrumming Thanks for the info. The noise seems to be around 0.5 Hz. The sound is gone when the motor is off. I'll try removing the platter and belt to see if the noise is associated with either of those. And a test record should be on my wish list. |
