I am pretty sure there is something lost in translation here and what
@nopiano was referring to is the anti-skate setting on Rega turntables needs to be dialled in to a figure that is below what Rega would recommend because if you don't it tends to apply too much anti-skate correction.
On my old Planar 3 I had to use half the recommended setting.
thank you for the explanation ,
i did bought recentelly a rega turntable but i normally put the anti-skating in what is considered the right amount as it relates with the weight on the arm ,but i work with turntables for a lot of years ,more like 35 years
I normally after putting a record to play i hear it and notice any imprfection in the sound and correct it by it´s sound not looking for the scale but to the sound on several parts of an lp side,
by listening to a record side that as more time of music as the grooves are closer to eachother one notices the adjustments to make in a anti-skating ,
also because i have old turntables (28) since late 60´s and one or two might not match the number said to be correct on the anti-skating, so by hear it´s the best, also knowing the album from front to back.
It´s not stronger but badly built(as it happened on plastic turntables from early 80´s, with a similar system ) not working as it should, that might happen on a heavy used turntables with almost 50 years or even more(normally more than 50 years), but in a Rega turntable?
i think they are not so old, only by the poor quality of construction where all mechanism is fitted in the same part, refering to the arm ,weight, anti-skating all in one piece.
the P10 seems not to have that problem or yet to start to be out of tune, only bought it early this year
