How to SPEED CHECK any record player!

What is the best speed slow or fast?

Hi, reacting perhaps on an old video, but I have a question. I just bought one of those suitcase players. The stylus is replacable ofc, but can you also replace the stylus with a 'better' one, say an audiotechnica one? Pleased to hear. As someone who played vinyl as a kid, I don't remember this stuff, as I picked this hobby back up. Your channel is great. It is really set apart from those other 'record snob' channels, which I like!

You talk kinda fast sometimes! Please explain again: how do I know which dots to use for US power? Does that vary among turntables? Which row for 33 1/3 and which row for 45?

[@Recordology]

Sorry.... first two rows are 50hz I believe, 45 and then 33

@@Recordology Thank you. I posted a note on your Hudson strobe disc tutorial as well that you might find interesting.

When the phone is not dead center you get wrong reading and wrong wow/flutter. And whatever the reading the app is a gimmick and can't be relied for accurate reading. You see people going on about using this and claiming their TT is off when in reality it is not. Rubbish.

Faster is better for sound quality (in theory) because spreading out the information allows for more info to be recorded accurately. The cost is that your record will fill up faster. So the slower 33 allows for more content so an orchestral piece can fit on one disc.
