Warm up time for record playing


It seems that my records don’t realize their full sonic potential until about 45 minutes of playing. Even if the rest of the system is already warmed up.
Does anyone have an explanation for this?

So as promised I did run the table 24 minutes before playing a side. There was still the same improvement across the first side, but it seemed to be starting from a higher level. So motor and bearing are probably at least a part of it.

Gosh Millercarbon is spot on for a change!

If you think that's the exception rather than the rule you have much to learn, #27.


So, even @frogman and others don't acknowledge my initial post, I soldier on
Steve - it’s OK... imo it all the above and add in humidity.... my Lyra lives at 70-72 rock solid ... but humidity is a wicked variable 


Take it easy Slaw, why so needy? I did acknowledge your post. Notice the “indeed” in my comment. Yours was the first and only post (until I post) to mention suspension. So, when I wrote my comment about the suspension as a possibility and write “indeed” as acknowledgment, who or what pray tell would I be referring to if not your post? So, to hopefully make up for my great transgression and to bank a few actual name mentions for possible future oversights 😊:
