The Thorens Geniune Replacement belt is the only one for vintage tables that live up to the billing.

I have a PL-50. Looks identical but has auto return. Not sure about the motor and such. First check to see where the belt is riding on the capstan, It should be in the middle, if it is high or low, it will affect your speed. The capstan height can be adjusted it is kid of a pain though. If...

Looks like early Renkus Heinz. Pretty common in the sound reinforcement world. Renkus-Heinz

I did, I have them on my Infinity Kappa 7's. I have spikes on the speakers so I bought that version. They help tremendously in speaker placement and as I recall, they cleaned up the sound a bit. I have had them in service for quite some time now so I don't recall how it sounded before...

Thank you. I am working on it.

Analog & tubes.... One of the many things I am thankful for today

It is a bad boy for sure, Got it Saturday and smoked some burgers on Sunday for a little family get together. Yep, smoked em. Awesome. Gonna do ribs this weekend. Can't wait!

I have a Sota Star. Belt drive, suspended TT. Based on my experience with it, I will never know how it compares to a DD or idler. Just sayin....
