are direct drive motors afected by power frequency?

Posted by digda_beat (A) on September 14, 2014 at 04:46:36

I am in Australia and bought an American denon recently, US power is at 60Hz whereas AUs power cycles at 50Hz.
I had heard that direct drive motors weren't affected by that, but I have not had any luck getting the strobe to the right speed, although its getting close.
I wonder if I will get 50/50 yes/no answers :)
