The rubber dampers that support the chassis springs need replacing on these tables. We will replace the originals with 3D printed ones and give the table a general servicing.
Cool. I just bought a PL-A35. Probably the coolest Pioneer I have encountered. Full Auto with 2 motors. 1 for the platter and one for the tonearm. Plinth is like a piece of furniture. The cork mat doesn't look great on that deck. Maybe if it was black. Lysol wipes cut the oily grime instantly and dry quickly. I like the lemon ones. Baby wipes are also good.
Agree that a mat is a mat. They sound alike. Good rubber one is fine, if it's flexible. Yes, too much antiskate. Tracking force should be meaured without mat in pace.
you say 3d printed feet, but where did you get them? or if you printed them yourselfm, do you have the file and what filament you used exactly please? thank you
the cantilever gets bent because it's too much anti-skate. when mounting the cartridge mount the cartridge on an angle so the cantilever is parallel with the headshell, that will sort out the problem. and it is advisable anyway even with a new stylus to have a slight angle twisted in a bit. with the incorrect spring you can just put a washer underneath and that will give you the same result. those non-quartz motors are better than quartz motors they don't suffer from cogging just make sure you have a conditioner when using the table orl build yourself an LC filter
Hey I've been watching a bunch of your videos and thanks for making them!, I'm also in Canada (Ontario) i was wondering if you have any info on the Yamaha yp-450? i cant find a service manual for it which isn't the end of the world but I want to put fresh silicone grease on the cue piston. any advice would be great
@@TurntableGuy thanks I noticed that but I don’t have an account and you need one to download stuff now,they aren’t accepting new members, I contacted analog alley who I’ve used a bunch and he doesn’t have a copy either. Not the end of the world I can figure it out thanks
