Thanks for showing the play in the mounting. Have you thought about installing a few washers under that bolt? I've got one on the way and I'll probably end up doing that.
Hadn’t thought of that’s that’s a great idea! Just have to be careful not to make it too snug.
did you ever end up doing that Miles? what was the verdict?
I have a pair of 12s but I want something portable on the fly for easy listening... I was considering a pt 01 scratch with a tone arm upgrade would you recommend it?
It's a great little turntable. The tonearm upgrade definitely makes a huge difference in audio quality.
I bought myself this and the JD fader for Xmas. fader was a breeze to install, buttt I've been avoiding installing the tonearm tbh bc it's my only turn table and i dont understand the grams of pressure etc and I'm afraid I'm gonna break the needle or a record immediately. Am i being paranoid? or can u direct me to a video that explains what all this means to a n00b? :)
You're being a bit paranoid TBH, you got this! The needle tells you how much pressure it can handle in the manual. Just give it a quick read through. Usually 4-5g is ok for any scratch needle.
@@DJCouchKing thanks friend! I didn't expect such a swift response from a 2 yr old video. great content.. following :)
Thanks for the follow!
How do you know how many grams you are putting on the needle? I have the same tonearm. Any advice. I know the video is old but thought i would give it try.
use a scale to figure out how much pressure. just look up tone arm scale or something similar and you should find one! they are only like $15 i think!
Hi, great review. I have the right channel issue. Only works the left side... you know how to solve it? Srry for the question
Double check the wiring in the headshell and preamp. Preamp should mono the signal.
Bro..did you solved it??
hey so I upgraded to the jesse dean tone arm. but now if I throw a 12" on my PT01 scratch the tone arm is at a hard angle. This is bad for my stylus right? so essentially you should only be playing 45's , 7"?
Yeah it's not really meant for 12" records. The mods are meant for 7" scratch records. Check the tracking weight also, it's pretty heavy out if the box which can wear down your vinyls.
DJ Couch King ya I noticed that immediately guess I’m stepping my 45 game up Cos right now I’m also using this player to sample
DJ Couch King thanks
Thanks for watching!
@@gabe7987 Hello Gabriel, I hope you are well! 🙂Just a question - when you said "the tone arm is at a hard angle", did you mean that the tonearm is at the edge of the 12", but *not* at 90 degrees? Or did you just mean that it's heavy (and thus it makes the 12" bend down) ?
personaly i got the issue is a buzing noise....... way to much
hey which needle/cart works with this tone arm>?
Any phono cartridge/stylus should work. I'd recommend the Ortofone Q.bert cart for scratching.
@@DJCouchKing why is that one particularly good?
