my turntable/record player goes too fast on the slowest setting. is there a way to slow it down?

January 29th, 2010 by admin


I don’t know what brand/model turntable you have but my Technics SL-1700(direct drive) has two seperate speed calibration screws underneath the platter(33&45 r.p.m.). Yours may be similiar or it may have to be opened to adjust platter speed. Calibrating should best be left to a professional. Keep in mind that a turntable requires proper lubrication as this affects speed.

    hmmmm thats a toughy, i think you may have to

    get it fixed somewhere

    go to bestbuy and ask for prices about getting

    it fixed, if its to expensive then ask

    if they know a different place to get it fixed.

    but ask someone who looks nice ^_^
