RE: Does speed stability even matter?

Vacuum hold down has nothing to do with speed stability and neither does the weight of the lacquer (which is heavier than an LP). We're talking about platter speed stability here! What I'm saying is that, if cutting lathes are the end all in speed stability, then we already have the technology to produce the (relatively) most stable turntable. If they are not the end all in speed stability, then I pose the question. Are turntable designers wasting their time trying to produce TTs with killer speed stability? If the groove was cut at varying speeds it doesn't matter how stable your TT is. It won't reproduce the frequencies correctly.
