Re: Accuracy of BSR turntables.
I have been using a BSR MP60 as my main turntable for about 4 years and agree that it runs slightly fast. Mine has been serviced and works well, so I will assume that it was like this from the factory. I realised that my MP60 was running fast when I listened to a CD copy of Jim Reeves 'Welcome To My World' and thought that it sounded slower than the LP version.
I used the BSR to listen to the LP 'Hooked On Classic 2' the other day and I though it gave a good account of itself! I'll check my spare one too.
Attached are the technical specifications for those who are wondering. Are they any good?
I think that some people have unreasonable expectations for these BSR turntables. They catered for those on a budget and those interested in entry level Hi-Fi. The MP60 fits the bill. It's first owner would have been really happy!
My only complaint is that there is some noise when the platter turns. I'm not sure what it is. My spare is the same.
