- Speed was getting wonky on this record player, so I attempt to replace the motor and give it a quick review.

May your Christmas bring you joy and peace.
Thanks! To you and yours.
To make removing those pulleys easier put a conical tip on your soldering iron and place it in the hole where the shaft goes through the brass will expand and come off with practically no effort.
😱 I still have my Philips turntable I bought 50 years ago ☺👍
one thing you can do to set the speed is to use one of those RPM apps on your phone. you just drop your phone on the platter, and it will detect the speed that it's spinning around pretty accurately
I'm certain your brother would be pleased you've repaired that record deck and enjoying his records/music. Have a merry Xmas and healthy and prosperous New Year, John. My first stereo was an old mono Grundig valve deck. I extended the stylus wires (ceramic cartridge I installed) and attached them to two DIY BJT very small amps. I would lie on my back with two small open speakers near my ears listening to that new release - LedZep Vol1 - heard nothing like it - brilliant.
What a great period of music, the late 60's. Happy Holidays.
Merry Christmas John
Cool lp collection, agree late 60s to 80s are the best. Nice turntable, its okay for a stand alone unit but would be tempted to modify it using a better motor and amp. However, as it has sentimental value understandably would keep it as is.
Seasons greetings to you and thankyou for the amazing content and candid reviews.
Thanks isoguy. The new motor is better but still flutters a bit. Happy Holidays!
Needs to increase A LITTLE the speed . I have 2 turntables perfectly alined but the most of sound quality start from the cartridge and shape of that tiny-tiny diamond tip
I like the part that go "WOBBLE WAVLE WOBBLE WOO" 😆that actual might get past the copyright detector 😏
Fun video
turntables prices are extreme these days .....
I kind of like the effect.
Perfect for Black Sabbath!
@@SuperHyperExtra Once we were listening to that Sabbath song with the air raid siren in it under a real air raid siren and it went off. We were so into it! It was just one of those moments. Good times.
Hi john your running your stylus weight too high, at 3,5g, thats a LOT of tracking force, you´re going to ruin your phono cartidge and/or stylus, please turn the balance weight until you see 2g thats more than enough for that cartidge or any modern movinf magnet one, that balance weigth at the back off the tonearm sets the weight that the stykus applyes to the record, you may know that, just wanted to advice you that the current setting is at 3,5g almost double the weight recommended. The stylus and records are going to last and overweight (or too much thacking force) doesn´t sonud better than the propper weight. so if you lower that is a win win situation. Hope this helps. Great video. your videos are becoming better with time, I compared wirh your first videos, you improved so much I´m very proud of you. ) Sorry English is not my main language, in fact is terrible.
There's something similar to this turntable that I have seen on another channel that features Bluetooth that can stream both ways! It's also a fully automatic turn table with a motorised tone arm lift and a separate and vibration isolated speaker enclosure in it .... I think that it was mentioned that it was $100 from Amazon.. seemed pretty good for it's price, it's not my sort of thing but it definitely looked like a very good foot in the door if someone wanted to get into vinyl records.... I think the channel was VWestlife..... You get to see what's inside it, there's a lot more going on than this turntable.... The Chinese stuff seems to be getting better....
Are you thinking of the review VWestlife did on the Mykesonic unit?
@@TheTrueVoiceOfReason yeah that's the one....
@@PeterMilanovski I saw that. I like the vwestlife channel.
Hi John I have a technical problem I can't solve as I can't do maths 😩 It's not a big problem but so annoying when you can't find a solution, it's a simple guitar tremolo with a weird fault if you have time I could post my email 🤔 best wishes and hope you have a nice Christmas 👍🏴
I can try to help.
