Hello may I know what is the belt size in millimeters of that turntable?

I have this turntable also now from a person that never used it. It was just standing on top of a cabinet. The sound is quite good, I was really surprised.

thanks dude. your guide made it possible for me to fix my turntable

Cool man, thanks for sharing!

Thank you for this video! Thanks to you I fixed my turntable.

Thank You!

Thank u 💕💕💕

Nice free find. You do have the slipmat on the platter upside down, though.

This was the first turntable I bought when I decided to get into vinyl about 20 years ago. The base model is still around - at least, the case design is - in the form of the Audio Technica LP60: www.whathifi.com/audio-technica/lp60-usb/review For £100 for the USB-equipped version you still can't go far wrong with this as an introductory turntable.

Thank you for the video. This is the one that taught me the most. I have two aiwa PX-E850 turntables and one needle falls very hard on the vinyl, falling free. I think I know where to graduate this.

It's definitely a good one for what I suspect it costs. There are wayyyy better turntables, of course. That's why I refer to it as "plastic grade" in the description. ;)

I had the same record player a while back just to enjoy at home, I had to modify it slightly as a few of the newer records are slightly bigger than 12". Not the best looking player but it did the trick

Yeah, it's a surprisingly decent thing despite its plastic looks.

+Brian Jones Ah, the days when every stereo system came with a turntable. *sigh* ;)

I have the px e850, (inherited from my dad) and the turntable won’t stop spinning? I’m not sure how to fix it .... also the tone arm won’t move to play the first song, it always goes to either the end (if it’s a long song) or on to the second ...

Hola amigo desde México. No he podido hacer funcional el automático, cómo se hace el ajuste exacto para que trabaje. Gracias.

HI Jan, I have just found you here and this was a good video as I have a 90s Aiwa turntable. I am looking to fix a skating/skipping issue that it has and I hope you have a video where you will show how to adjust these things on that turntable. It does not have the same dials as other better record players.

Ah, I didn’t do any additional work on this Aiwa, it worked fine and I gave it to a friend (who I think is still using it to this day). You may be able to find a service manual for your particular one on vinylengine or a similar site. Instructions for setting up anti skate should be in there, if the turntable has a setting for it at all (some of the basic models are just set up from factory and you can’t change the settings manually afterwards unfortunately). Hope that helps!

Sir, where's the mat that fits the platter?

I have the same turntable

I have one, but I need a speaker or something to connect it and listen.

I have this turntable but it buzzes like mad might it benefit from a phono box? I link it to a set of powered speakers

Jan, you forgot to put the C clip back on the shaft! Probably not a big deal but thought I'd mention it ;)

Hello may I know what is the belt size in millimeters of that turntable? Please, thank you.

It has the same design as the Audio Technica AT LP60

Gibt es für den PS einen Adapter? Ich habe mir eine AIWA-HiFi-Anlage zugelegt, da passt der Stecker aber nicht. Es ist zwar eine Buchse hinten dran, die ist aber für den CD-Player-Part und der Stecker passt da nicht. Ach ja und kann es sein, dass ein zu enges LP-Loch in der Mitte den Plattenspieler bremst? Kann man das Loch irgendwie auf einfache Weise vergrößern, ohne, dass die Platte bricht?

Can i use audio Technica lp6p stylus on this model?

I have one just like that, but i cant get it to ajdust the speed, it feel like it's a bit faster than it was supposed to be.

+Marcos Roberto de Souza Junior I don't know how to do it exactly but usually you would have to get a strobe disc (downloadable) and a strobe light like a tungsten light and then adjust the speed adjustment screw while it's turning. There are good manuals for that all over the web I guess.

I have one of these turntables myself. I recently after nearly 30 years had to bring down the speed of the 33rpm for similar reason as yourself, now working like new. Not bad for a turntable from the 90s. One thing though, I think the slipmat should be the other way round on the smooth side.

On many of the less expensive turntables, the arms are pre-setup for the specific pickup/stylus they use and don’t even have any adjustments.

Mh, it should just be clipped in I think. I don't have the turntable anymore so I can't check in person. Usually you can pull the needle assembly off pulling it straight out from the holder, parallel to the arm.

How do you replace the needle?

Hello. my turntable goes a little fast. There is two holes marked 33 and the other 45. Can i adjust the speed? In each holes there is a kind of screw to turn. In which direction should i turn them to decrease the speed of the turntable?

@JanBeta

3 жыл бұрын

Usually the screws have little adjustable resistors that control the speed for the 33 and 45 rpm settings, yes. It depends on your turntable which way you have to turn them. You can try to find a manual for your specific turntable or just use a trial and error approach. :)

If all else fails, there are special pliers for the job. They push the lock outwards and pull it away from the axis at the same time. Usually you can just use brute force and a screwdriver.
