RE: 33.1 to 33.3 Audible?

Actually, the difference between 33.1 and 33.333 is 0.7%. I don't think I heard the difference because it didn't manifest itself as wow % flutter. It was a gradual drift over a long period of time. However, it annoyed the heck out of me and it was totally unacceptable for a ten-thousand dollar turntable. Also, the fact that Sota used a stepper motor as a turntable motor is very unusual if not truly a bad design choice. Stepper motors have the maximum amount of cogging of any motor. Of course, the massive platter combined with the elastic belt should have isolated the LP, but I truly believe I hear an improvement with my new 3-phase motor and controller.

Best regards,
John Elison
