Turntable plays too fast (by 2 users)

posted by kwenbogdan on May 08, 2008


The turntable plays records too fast - the record's pitch is noticeably higher than is normal.

I have a SL-A100 and I have the same problem. Actually, it's not that the turntable gets stuck on 45 rpm when I switch to 33 (which is what your solution seems to fix). It just rotates *slightly* too fast: it actually spins at 34.7 rpm instead of 33.3, enough to raise the pitch of a record just shy of one semitone. This is exceptionally annoying that a recent product like this ships with such a trivial defect.

I have seen this problem before. Lift the turntable off. It might be held down with a clip around the center pole. Under it you will see a wheel that contacts the turn table and the center shaft of the motor. The motor shaft has 3 0r 4 elevations with different diameters. When you change the speed the wheel will move up and down to different diameter levels on the motor shaft. It must be free to move. It might need some oil at the moving parts as I suspect it is not moving properly.
Hope this helps.
