Turntable with stable speed.


Which turntables offer a stable speed? I don't mind if it spins at 33.29 or 33.34, as long as it stays there and does not fluctuate.

I am very sensitive to uneven pitch being created by tables spinning at uneven speeds. Very evident with piano, or any instrument that is holding a long tone.

Which tables now-a-days excel at this?

The real problem as I see it is that pressings often have off-center holes and this is the source of uneven pitch. Modern tables excel at constant platter rotation.
Timeline tested:

Basis Debut
Kuzma Reference
Micro Seiki 5000 (discontinued)
Platine Verdier original (France, discontinued)
All of the Denon direct-drive turntables with quartz-locked motors were very stable. Think DP-57, DP-60, DP-70, and DP-72...
