Denon DP-300F stylus & belt replacement 

Fantastic news! So glad I could help

Great to hear! So glad it helped. Cheers mate.

Glad i could help 🍻

Awesome! Glad it helped. 🤙🏻

ah nice, I’m actually hearing slight pitch issues now. I’ll take a look at the speed controls. Thanks for the suggestion 👍🏻

@@sdeeth gonna take some fine turning and it your have the turntable speed phone app that would help or a strobe disc

Where the bottom of the player is really the bottom? So you have to flip the player upside down the adjust the speed?? And with what tool? Lol. Do i understand correctly? Why did they make this so complicated and not just create buttons on the player itself.

No problems, glad I could help.

No worries. Glad I could help

ok, no takers. 🤷🏻‍♂️ It’s Silverchair - Neon Ballroom.

SolidusSnake142 there are a number of different ones that will work, but my major reason to choose what I did was price. Others were 2 or 3 times the price of what I installed. If you do a bit of googling, you’ll find a few forums where people discuss different options for this player. That’s pretty much what I did. Good luck with it all.

@@johnadair6108 yeah mate still have it. Still going strong and no issues. Would definitely recommend.

Hi Oscar, i had the same issue with my player before i replaced my belt. So i did a bit of research when mine was running too fast and i started with the basic on first (which fixed mine) instead of using the speed adjustment screw underneath the player. So take off your rubber mat, and you'll see the belt through the inspection hole on the left. (you might need to spin platter around to see it). shorturl.at/dkEP7 - So what i found was that my belt wasn't sitting evenly around the inside of the platter, it was sort of wavy. I slowy moved the platter around and centered up the belt around the platter using my fingers. (Don't take the belt off the small gold pulley). If you find your belt isn't sitting right this might be your issue. after i adjusted mine it played at the correct speed. Months later it stated playing fast again and thats why i replaced my belt to a newer one. There are other options which involve the adjustment screws under the player but try this first. Hope this helps.

@@sdeeth im gonna figure this out, but wich screw do you mean? I see so many ;)

JSW hi sorry for the late reply. No the rca cables on the back cannot be detached unfortunately. They are very short too! I guess you could extend the cable. I probably wouldn’t suggest opening the player and installing new ones, but it could be an option though.

Yes, the outer layer is a thick hard plastic. I assume the inner frame is some form of metal.

I did eventually do that yes. I just set it as per the steps in the user manual.

@@sdeeth Ah I see thanks so much for responding and for the answer . I am new to this world of turntables and every youtube tutorial of sorts that show how to replace the stylus, never really comment on that extra step ... they usually just end the video with ... its Done. so up until now I thought that it was good to go. An extra question do you also need to re "center" (sorry if its the wrong word here) the needle after putting the new one in ? or does one only do that when replacing everything under the headshell ?

@@selbac.363 hey, no worries. After I replaced the stylus I found the records were skipping really easily. When I walked past the turntable it would skip every time. So I assumed there wasn’t enough pressure on the needle. It never did this before replacing so not sure if I’d put it out of alignment after replacing (i think I must have)... So after doing the full setup as set out in the user manual it was perfect. No I didn’t need to touch the needle, it’s all contained in the blue part I changed in the video. Once you snap it into place it’s all good, apart from doing the set up as mentioned above.

Excellent

cyberswarup cool, I’ll give it a try. Thanks for the tip.
