Been tinkering on this ordinary old #Pioneer turntable for some time now to get it to perform better.
A total of 6 modifications.
Disconnected the auto lift mechanism and replaced it with manual.
Manual power switch.
Put vibration-absorbing washers on motor mount.
Fabricated a new counterweight (the old one had fallen off before I bought it)
Added a platter mat cut from an old yoga mat and a new drive belt.
Made a DIY anti-skating device modelled on how #Thorens do it.
New cartridge arriving this week.
