Hi Jan - I contacted the bearing manufacturer you linked me to.  Here's their response:Thank you for your email.  Sorry, I do not have the cross reference information for the bearing size your turntable requires.  Please let me know if you can provid...

Thanks again for all the info, Jan.  I picked up some Mobil DTE 25 hydraulic oil at the recommendation of someone else.  Do you feel that is inappropriate?  You seem to be the resident expert on this.  I'm going to flip the plate but as long as I'm t...

Thanks so much for the reply.  Not to push your courtesy further, but are these readily available components?  Lube is no problem, of course. Thanks again....

I've had an RX-5000 for a few months now.  I've read yours and other comments with great interest.  I'm a long time high end dealer who is losing his vision and is mostly retired.  I've known this particular turntable for about 35 years since it belo...

I don't think I made myself clear.  The only time the table ran slow was with the thread belt.  Speed is very constant with the rubber belt.  If you spin the platter with no belt it continues for several minutes. The table hadn't been moved for 35 ye...

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 sou...

I was convinced mine wouldn't come off.  It did.  Inserted long screws, had one person pulling up on them while I worked three wood shims around the sides, slowing pushing it up. After 1/8" or so it popped free....

Hi.  First time posting.  I had long admired an older friend's RX-5000.  He left it to me when he passed last year (RIP, Bill) and I recently got possession and did a lot of cleanup on a table that had been sitting for a couple of decades.  He has ow...
