Speed stability issues with my Teres turntable... I have a Redpoint Model D tt and I had some speed issues a while back, I got a new motor from Maxon thinking that was the problem it was not. Same speed issue as before so I did some checking turns out it was the motor circuitry. I bought a cheap ... | |
Brass Pulley for My TT Update:Turns out it was the belt leaving the residue, kinda weird though none of the belts I used in the past did this... I am thinking maybe because I am near the end of the roll of Mylar had something to do with it? | |
What Type Belt Are You Using @analogluvr ,What type VCR tape are you using? Is it 1/2" wide? Do you do anything to it before installing it? Or do you just splice it and go? | |
What Type Belt Are You Using @palasr ,I wanted to try one of the Kapton belts but, at $85 each I think not. I can make a Mylar belt for less than 8 cents.... | |
Brass Pulley for My TT Update:So I had the machine shop make another pulley from SS and wouldn't ya know it , it is also leaving a residue. So now it is either the belt itself or something the shop used on the material I guess??? | |

Brass Pulley for My TT invictus005,Yes I agree my other pulley is made from SS, he told me he would make one from SS if I wanted it. | |
Brass Pulley for My TT brf,I am hoping you are right, that's what I am thinking also. That the shop didn't polish it enough I guess time will tell. | |
Are There Any Redpoint Owners Here I agree, I replaced the Maxon motor about 2 years ago I only have 200 hours on the TT since changing the motor. I did buy a complete motor and controller assembly but, I think it is too light for the heavy platter. I won’t know for sure until I ge... | |

Are There Any Redpoint Owners Here Well thanks guys, I was just wondering if anyone knew where a new pulley could be gotten? I have since gone to a machine shop to have one made. To my knowledge there are no more dealers Peter has gone into hiding, so it's a good thing not much can... | |
