Technics 1200MKII Burning Smell

Your turntable may be long overdue for some motor spindle oil. It's supposed to be replenished after every 2000 to 3000 hours of play, and I bet the overwhelming majority of SL12x0 owners have never oiled their turntables. You can get a small tube (it'll last a lifetime) of the official oil from kabusa.com for $4.95. |
