The goal of the vinyl turntable tonearm is to position the cartridge needle on the record track. Positioning involves moving the needle from the edge to the center of the vinyl plate, as well as providing the necessary angle between the needle and the vinyl plate. The tonearm consists of a tube, a rotating mechanism, a clamping force regulator, a rolling force compensator and a mounting platform for the cartridge. As we have said, all the vinyl turntable components are very responsible, but the tonearm design is probably the most mechanically complicated...

The vinyl turntable support disc is very important for quality playback because it is in direct contact with the record, affecting the pickup needle through it. One of the most important requirements for a baseplate is the stability of its rotation speed. The rotation speed for most modern recordings must be strictly 33 1/3 rpm. Deviation from this value is extremely undesirable but much worse if this deviation is not constant, but is periodic in nature. In this case, the sound begins to "float", which is clearly visible to the ears...

While vinyl players seem to be easy at first glance, they require exceptional precision in the design and assembly of each of the components in order to deliver true sound quality from the record. There are no small things here, as you can see by reading this article further The main elements that make up the record player (or LP-player) are the fixed chassis or base, the driving mechanisms, the tonearm, and the pickup head. The chassis of the player is a fixed base on which all its components are mounted...

Surprisingly, the design of the record has not changed much since it was invented in the mid-19th century. Naturally, the materials from which they are made have also changed, and the technology of making and recording master discs, but the very idea behind the gramophone recording remained unchanged. This idea is generally simple, but at the same time not quite trivial. To record a master disk, i.e. a disk from which copies are subsequently made, a chisel is used, which, under the influence of...

Probably, many of those who read this material caught the era of gramophone records. In any case, among people over 30 years of age, there will be a clear majority of them. For example, I still have an impressive stack of records at home. Basically, these are, of course, children's fairy tales (or as they are called now, audiobooks), there are musical recordings of some incomprehensible and faded nowadays pop stars of the time of the socialist sunset, and there are really interesting records - Vysotsky,...
