Thanks, for your kind words. I have just subscribed to your channel, which was unknown to me, probably since I generally only watch the videos, as far as audio/electronics is concerned, of my subscribers.
Now, that was very interesting. I have a Kenwood KD-38R turntable which has the automatic return feature. I just got it up and running after sitting for some time. I noticed when the arm reaches the end of the record and starts returning to the arm post, about 2/3 of the way it makes a groaning sound. possibly the black arm is rubbing and making that groaning sound from lack of lubrication? I'm guessing at this point because I haven't turned over the turn table yet. Another thing I noticed, the belt seems to be rather loose on the spindle from the motor. I have ordered a new belt because I'm sure it's probably the same one that came with the turntable. I do from time to time, notice a slight wow and flutter and am pretty sure the belt is probably what is causing it. when I get the new belt, I'll be inspecting underneath to find the cause of the groaning sound. Thanks for the great video.
Thanks for watching and your comments! Belt needs changing for sure. Might be lubrication needed--lightly. Hard to do a remote-diagnosis: from here. Good luck!
Hi , your video was so good. Actually i have a silver brand Turntable comes with the same mechanism. I removed the cam gear ,but timing changed . Now the tome arm is raised when it plays for 10 seconds. Can you pls mention the model of the turntable, which is demonstrated.Thanks.
Hi, thank you for this informative video! I have a player that has this mechanism. It is currently returning too early when playing 45s. Do you know why this happens?
