I have an Empire 698 that seems to be running fast. I can't find one single post in the archives with anyone discussing an Empire 698 speed problem and apparently these are reputed to be ultra-reliable. I can't figure this one out. At first, I thought that I had the wrong belt. Then I purchased a new one as per the advice of Joel at The Turntable Factory and the problem is the same. I guess there is no speed adjustment on this unit. Any thoughts???

- SKEPTIC is absolutely correct. There was an export model where the actual platter diameter is changed not the pulley.. - Ray-o-Stat 07:39:29 05/12/07 (0)
