Welcome Licorice Pizza (LP) lovers! Setup guides and Vinyl FAQ.

I had an LP12 before and...

and it takes a lot for it to bounce around crazy like that. I have bounced the platter slightly and it would track flawlessly.

There are a lot of things you left out.

1. What type of floor do you have?
2. What type of shelf is it sitting on?
3. Have you changed anything since it last worked properly?
4. How is the armboard to plinth level?
5. Is this happening only when you walk away or towards the table?
6. Is the table leveled properly?
7. What type of arm/cartridge do you have on the table?
8. Is this only happening on warped records or does it do on record that are near perfect?
9. Is the table close to the speaker or sub?
10 Are you actually seeing the platter start to bounce? Because the Tonearm and platter should be bouncing together at the same rate.
11. Is the cantilever on the cartridge ok?
12. Have you accidently dropped the inner platter down onto the Thrust plate or moved this table with the Platter still on it?
13. Have you done anything to the table, I mean anything since you last used it?

Until we have specific information, it will be hard for us to determine what has changed since it last worked properly and what may be the cause is. I would be very interested on what the answers to the questions would be.
