Post Subject: Micro Seiki RX-5000 Recommended BeltPosted by rom661 on: 11/29/2022
Hi.  I acquired and spent a lot of time on this guy over the last few months. I've installed a Dynavector 507 MK II tonearm and a Dyhavector XVS-1 cartridge.  I read Romy's comments that in his experience with the 8000 the belt doesn't affect the sound.  I bought some of the aramid fiber string and made a belt but have trouble keeping the speed consistent.  Not varying, just dropping down to almost half and staying there.  Bought a $20 "replacement" belt that seems to cause static, which I don't understand.  Now I'm seeing the SF-1 belt, some new, which is fiber.  I don't have a preference, just something that works reliably and sounds good.  I didn't even know the fabric one existed.  If anyone has suggestions, with sources, they are very welcome.  Thanks
