Default Re: Nice Way To Measure Turntable Speed

Having spent a good many years repairing T/T I always check them with crystal derived strobe to make sure that they are near the required speed. You get the odd off speed job where the customer has been over enthusiastic with emery/glass paper (I kid you not!) on the motor pulley but generally they all fall well within spec.
The main, rare, problem are those people blessed/cursed with perfect pitch for which I am unable to do anything except recommend a variable speed T/T.
