I don’t want to get too far off topic… but I feel the need to set the record straight. I did NOT say my $12,000 was MORE than 1% off-speed; it is just about 1%. Oh, sure those adjustable pitch turntables sure look pretty, but aren’t any more accurate. Turntables, by their inherent design and nature are not going to get much more accurate than 1/2-1%…slow or fast.
These forums just slay me… People hear (or read) exactly what they want, no matter what is written…
If the strobe pattern is standing still, how could the speed accuracy be different than the accuracy of the strobe? That would be the 60 hz line frequency in my case (assuredly better than 1/2 % for grid power). AFAIK with a good turntable the greatest inaccuracy will come from the hole in the record being slightly off center, and there’s even at least one TT that can correct for that.
