RE: Your Rega 3 was not working correctly.

I remember the Rega pulley and how hard it could sometimes be to get the "belt" to stay both in the pulley detent and the subplatter channel. But I don't think I was having that problem.
The very loud passages were followed by wow in their reverberant trails, which I also had with the Oracle tables though not to the same extent. After hearing the twang in the Rega after loud passages I started noticing it during the loud passages and after loud whacks on drums and piano poundings. Years later I noticed it on the Oracle table too. It was at a lower level and was a substantial improvement over the Rega but was still there and became more obvious over time.

I had always used clamps on the turntables so I am fairly certain that it was never a matter of slippage. Also this did not occur on the Lenco I had before and I didn't have a clamp for it, I just used a weight occasionally..
