@@scottinman5788 Look into an LP cleaning system like Spin Clean, or perhaps an ultrasonic cleaning system. I use the KARC-1 from Kirmuss Audio. If the smell is coming from the LP jackets, though, I regret that I don’t have any suggestions that might help, but I wonder if leaving the jackets outdoors in the sun for a day might kill the mildew/mold. I haven’t tried this, but it couldn’t hurt.
How about the best ways to test anti-skating and correct for it. I know that you have the RT85, Jarrett. So do I, and I love mine. Fluance, like most manufacturers say to set the anti-skating dial to the same value as the tracking force, but that’s not necessarily precise enough. I have a couple of old LaserDiscs, and they are perfectly suited for testing ant-skating. They are precisely flat and cannot warp, and have a smooth surface (no physical grooves). When I dropped the needle, I found that the tonearm skated toward the spindle. Observing this, I would move the anti-skating dial while the stylus was on the surface of the LaserDisc, until it remained motionless. That’s how I tuned my RT85 so that the anti-skating force was exact. Had I not done this, and if I had followed the instructions, there would be more pressure from the stylus on the inner wall of each groove, and it might cause more wear or distortion. There are some audiophile TEST LPs that have blank sections for anti-skate testing, but using a LaserDisc allows someone to drop the needle any place on the surface to test the anti-skating force. LaserDiscs can be found in thrift shops and online for under $2 or less. I have a local source that sells them for $5 apiece.
I feel honoured. Thank you very much for actually accepting my suggestion. It means a lot to me, especially, that you linked it to the solution of problems, because this is just what this track did to me.
In your situation you can also slightly unscrew one of the screws on the back of your receiver and slide the ground wire in there before tightening. Slightly better option than taping.
If your receiver doesn't have a grounding post you can always loosen a screw on it's cover and use it instead. Any metal cover on a receiver will be grounded, so any screw attaching it will also be grounded too. Taping it isn't a good idea, because if it loosens or contact is intermittent it could cause a grounding hum, which can blow speaker drivers if it occurs at a high enough volume level.
Actually, the original product specifications of a vinyl record were put at withstanding up to 8 grams. I'd say that if your tracking force is over 5 grams, your records will wear out faster (speaking from experience and research). But not be "carved up", more like your surface noise will very slowly increase.
My problems since I just started my collection: 1) Not having enough records! 2) Aged Warped Records not playing (or sounding well) 3) Wanting better sound quality but not having enough for a new cartridge 4) Accidentally bumping into the weight/anti skate 5) Finding your favorite song on an album, buying it for about a dollar, and finding that one song you love has its groves destroyed! (I paid a few dollars finding it in a bin so atleast I have the rest of the record... but now I have to buy another) Anyone else have their personal lists?
A big but also an overlooked problem are the signal cables. If you buy bad cables, your system will sound bad. I made my own turntable cables and they made a HUGE difference in sound. Song of the day: Tom Waits - Romeo is Bleeding Cheers!
@@juancastillo7081 I used balanced microphone cables, 2 6.3mm stereo jacks and 2 RCA jacks. The red wire is soldered to the tips of the jacks. The white wire is soldered to the ring of the 6.3mm jack and the sleeve of the rca jack. The shield of the cable is soldered to the sleeve of the 6.3mm jack and to a u-connector. It may sound complicated, but it is not.
Hey I have a question. My record player plays almost all my records but two to the end. For the two it will stop before finishing the last song on the record. Is there anyway to fix it? One of the two is a Disturbed Down With The Sickness Vinyl and the other is a 7 inch vinyl. Is there any way to make the player finish the songs before auto stopping? The model is Wockoder KD-2008BL.
Another reason for low volume is something that happened to me. I was very proud of the sound my new turntable produced.I told my friend he came over. I switched on , and the pitiful sound it produced was embarrassing, until my wife said "should the headphones be plugged in!!!!
Well LP records were designed to withstand 6 grams. Yes they will wear down your records faster the heavier the tracking force is, but people exaggerate with this a lot. I have a teac lpr550 player at my summer home which tracks at 5.0 grams and i have played some records with it over 40 times and they still sound great. It also depends on your stylus a lot, i ordered a LP Gear Cerapreme Blue stylus for it which is a great stylus.
I know that you have done videos about your favorite albums, but I would love to see you do a video about your favorite 7 inch singles in your collection.
Probably your turntable audio is connected through cinch (rca) plugs, you can try to pinch a fine wire (remove insulation...) between the "cold" cinch chassis and the collar of the wire plug and connect it to ground. (Make sure not to touch the "hot" pin of the plug)
I recently hooked up my Technics SL-DB35 to my Yamaha RX-V663. Since the needle on the TT was missing, I replaced the cartridge with a Realistic-Shure RXT6. I also had to order the ground cable and the belt. Now I am waiting for the pre-amp to be able to have the system running the way it should, given that the Yamaha receiver does not have phono inputs. I also have many records that range from the '50s to the '80s, and when played, you cannot hear any crack or pop on them (yes, I take very good care of them LPs). Great video!
Jarrett wont acknowledge that. Not will he acknowledge other problems with that table. He worships it. And its not right that the truth isnt being told.
Hi there so I hooked up my new turntable but I have a problem the spindle or the motor in the middle keeps giving a humming or should I say a weird sound....please advise
I have a problem, my turntable plays a beat sound every 2 or 3 seconds while there is not any vinyl disk playing (note: that beat sound plays even if there is a vinyl playing). I have done a research in this problem and found nothing, i have searched it in youtube and found nothing.
the part about using a scale to determine the tracking force was something I hadn't thought of. Many moving parts that have to be adjusted to work perfectly.
Thank you so much for this channel and vid. Recently picked up my fathers old collection, which had been collecting dust for years (and in isch... shape) and bought a vintage Dual CS 503, and have been having problems with the sound, but no idea on how to fix it. This helped a lot!

I have a Technics record player SL-QD 33 of which the record player's legs are endured. They are sticky and the rubber comes off! Is it possible to replace it.
I'm really not sure what to do my records are all popping but they also are distorted. When I play a song you can hear the song playing underneath it slower if that makes sense. Kind of like background vocals but it's definitely not intentional. My needle is fine and brand new and I'm not sure what to do it's every vinyl I play. The popping is constant but the whispering or background vocal issue is only when the volume is at certain levels? I'm not sure what to do and could really use your help
I bought a victrola all in one unit and the arm wants to go straight across the record. It won't stay still long enough to play properly. Is that fixable or should I send it back?
I'm trying to fix a problem on my new A-T LP120XUSB. I Connected my player to some brand new CR3 speakers. They connect via Line. So when I increase the volume as soon as it gets a certain level a high pitch sounds start coming out of the speakers as if it has something to do with the tonearm. I plugged in other devices to the speakers to see if it was just the speakers but no dice. It only demonstrates that sound when playing the record player.
Mines has a pop and keeps repeating it won’t get thru the whole track. What was the liquid you use to clean it? And what did you use to apply the liquid.

I’ve tried to get sound via Bluetooth thru surround speakers and tv speaker and that doesn’t work either. Anything else I can try?
I'm getting a very odd sound out of my turntable. It's quiet before the stylus touches the LP, but makes a scratchy noise and almost echo sound when playing the record. I've switched out the stylus: no success. I've separated the four lead wires going into the cartridge: no success. I'm not finding a solution. Please help.
I dont much about record players but when i play a record, it rotates normally till the blank recording, once the song starts the records stops rotating within a sec. This was fine few days before, I dont know what to do :(

So i have my record player an pre amp and an Sonos play 5 so there is a amplifier in the speaker, but i still get really soft sound, can it be a bad pre amp? or something else ? anyone experience with this kind of setup ?

I got a new Voksun turntable but it seems to keep dragging like the spinning plate is catching on something. It makes my records sound slow and distorted, if it even bothers to play the record
Hi. I have a problem which is not listed in your video. I get a vibration drumming sound when my volume from the amp goes above a certain level. This generally occurs at the start of a record, even a new one. What could be the reason? I have a Marantz TT5005 turntable connected to an amplifier which has the pre-amp as well. So I operate the Marantz in the OFF mode.
Here's one for you: What is the problem when, after releasing the cue, your arm doesn't fall directly into the groove at that point, but drifts a little so that it is not falling into the feed, but rather several grooves ahead?
Everything well installed, sound is good, but when i touch the turntable cabinet works like a mike through the loudspeakers (resonance); (turntable is Project-Audio Classic Evo with Audio Technica VM95Shibata, Yamaha RX-A3050 and Focal Aria 948 loudspeakers on a Lovan Rack)...
Can Somebody help me?? I got my Victrola 2 years ago it was working Great! But for some reason now it won’t even turn on! I’m having trouble finding Videos on how to fix it (If there is a way) and someone please help me? I am Really confused.
I just got my Grandmothers old Fisher Turntable. I’ve hooked it up to my stereo receiver and got it to play but when it does every few seconds it seems to skip ahead. I just put a new stylus on it because hers was broken so I’m. Im not sure what to look at next. I’ve never honestly used a Turntable before so the technicalities are new to me.
Thanks for addressing some issues. But besides the grounding hum which I don’t have, I get this deep bass thump whenever I touch the turntable or lid or the cabinet it’s on. I’ve heard to try to isolate the turntable on its own cabinet or but it on a pice of concrete so the noise doesn’t resonate through the cartridge. This is not a plausible thing to do wires cables are short and space is tight. What’s the cause and how can I fix it?
If possible fit a turntable wall shelf that will cure all your problems they can be baught at a reasonable price and can be a huge boost to sound quality if you are getting feedback through floors and cabinets hope that helps

I just put a new stylus on it because hers was broken so I’m. Im not sure what to look at next. I’ve never honestly used a Turntable before so the technicalities are new to me.
Song of the day the emotions - the good times
In a beginner and I got a vinyl and it keeps skipping to an other like line and I don’t know how to fix it.
Thanks for addressing some issues. But besides the grounding hum which I don’t have, I get this deep bass thump whenever I touch the turntable or lid or the cabinet it’s on. I’ve heard to try to isolate the turntable on its own cabinet or but it on a pice of concrete so the noise doesn’t resonate through the cartridge. This is not a plausible thing to do wires cables are short and space is tight. What’s the cause and how can I fix it?
If possible fit a turntable wall shelf that will cure all your problems they can be baught at a reasonable price and can be a huge boost to sound quality if you are getting feedback through floors and cabinets hope that helps
