107.77.203.66
.... and I've come to the conclusion that this 12.1" is the best. I have no connection to the seller, I just had a hard time finding the quietest and best sounding belt so I thought I'd share the link. My situation was tricky because I've upgraded my arm to an SME M2 12R which unfortunately is so sensitive it was picking up motor noise on my rebuilt 124.... so that sent me on a search for a belt that would help mute the rumble. On my 124 at least, this is truly a silent running belt.

Also tried this one ? the same dimensions as the old one.
Actually I forgot about that website! I'll give it a try. I still have their spring kit that I haven't installed.
I tried this one, but it was a bit too tight. It seemed quiet at first, but then you heard some strain, as it was pulling on the step-pulley a bit too much. Would like to hear another one that was a little bigger.
Ermmm Wait a month ? the 'new' belt will stretch.
Get one that's oversize and once stretched it will fall down
Just a comment from a user with a 50hz pulley
Just a quick update on the belt you sent me a year ago. After leaving it in place for the year I like it a lot. I guess it may have stretched a little now as it is running very quietly indeed and ranks as the best belt I've so far found for my TD-124. I still stand by my earlier comments that just slightly longer would be a good thing and believe that there should really be two different belts for the 50Hz and 60Hz pulleys given the marked difference in circumference (I'm on the larger 50Hz pulley) which has to translate to two very different tensions. It is however a very, very good belt!
