this might not be the best place to ask but i'm going to try. I recently change the belt of my record player because it sounded slow. now its fixed but the 45 speed plays kind of slow and the 33 speed plays normal? any help on that? please i have a 2002 thomas pacconi record player..

@jg1988 It's very difficult to tell without seeing the turntable and I am not familiar with that brand. If you say it was a 'belt' you replaced as opposed to an idler 'wheel', then perhaps the belt is not sitting on the 'step' required for 45 operation. Just a guess having not seen the player...

@tubeie07 thanks for replying. and what do i have to do for the idler wheel then or the step required for the 45 operation ? you might see the thomas pacconi record players thru yahoo searches

@jg1988 Hi, I just looked up your brand of player and as it is actually a modern player 'looking as antique' player, I am not familiar with that type of turntable so I can't help you further. Sorry about that...

@omily2007 Yes, just by doing what's in the video - all good now!
