variance of +/- 10 Hz with 1 kHz test tone
Ok, some new info here. I figured out why the Platter Speed app was not registering. I didn't realize that side 1 of the Clearaudio burn in LP is 45 rpm. Once I set the TTPSU to 45 rmp, the app registered the new data, which follows: - speed varie... 
variance of +/- 10 Hz with 1 kHz test tone
@Gvasale and @Atmasphere, what is the formula you are using for these calculations?

Should I try another platter to see if my current factory Rega one is defective? 
How much to spend on a decently good phono stage?
Jasmine LP 2 mkII - under $600. Beat out the Vincent 2 boxer and the Pro-ject phono tube box. See my threads and system page. 
Used VPI Traveler v1 vs. New Rega RP3
Make sure you use adjust dial at the back of the tonearm and not the counterweight itself to set tracking force. 
Rega RP6 VTA issue
I like my RP6 setup. Non-rega cartridge with no spacers. See my system page. And yes, I do not mess with my setup except maybe the tracking force and antiskate. 
Any opinions of the ifi iphono vs Jasmine 2.phono
After looking at the ifi, I like the the switchable EQs but I think it should have all the RCAs on the back with power and the EQ button in front. Much more user friendly. I think the Jasmine is one up with the separate non wall-wart power supply 
Any opinions of the ifi iphono vs Jasmine 2.phono

Pro-ject Debut Carbon vs Debut III ??
RP3 after owning two pro-ject tables. 
Pro-ject Debut Carbon vs Debut III ??
Be careful, both of these tables canhave low tonearm bearing tolerances = bad = can damage your records. 
turntable mats: should I use one?
It is usually recommended that a clamp is used with acrylic platters. I have a clearaudio clever clamp that I don't need anymore after going to a rega rp6. Email me if interested. 
Interesting analog experience
My cat will only sit on my analog cabinet or speakers when vinyl is playing. Smart cat, some call it a Linnkat.

Turntable suggestion -- budget.. or not?
I put this thread together covering a Pro-ject, a Traveler and a little about the Rega I currently own. 
Turntable suggestion -- budget.. or not?
Just say no to rega carts. RP3 is a very good table for the price, especially if you can find it used. Ortofon 2M blue with that would be a good start.
