Pro-ject speedbox: Is improvement worth the $ ?


Just bought a Music Hall 2.2LE 'table. Will the addition of a Pro-ject speedbox (whatever model), control the speed SIGNIFICANTLY better than the turntable, or is the main benefit focused on changing speeds from 33 to 45 on the fly?

Hmmm. The table will be plugged into a voltage regulator so it WILL see a steady 120V. All of my equipment draws such little power the output always shows 120V in the display, never going up or down even one volt so I should be good there. Like Kiko said, think I'll just upgrade the cart for now...... and maybe a cork mat. Was going to get the acrilic platter but am having a hard time justifying the price for a platter at 1/3rd the cost of the table. I'd rather get a cart. Maybe an Ortofon Blue.....? I have a Graham Slee coming so if a put a nice cart on the table it may be a decent analog setup.
Thanks to everyone for your opinions so far.
Which Graham Slee are you getting Devilboy? We may be able to recommend a cart based on the Slee's specs.
I should have added that I too use a voltage regulator, in this case a regenerator, a PS Audio Premier Power Plant, and even with the Speedbox plugged into that, there was an audible improvement.

No it won't. For that you need a re-generator.

"All of my equipment draws such little power the output always shows 120V in the display, never going up or down even one volt so I should be good there."

Your equipment isn't the real problem. Varying conditions outside your house make the AC fluctuate. If you call The Cable Company they'll send you a demo speed control so you can try it in your system first.
Zd542, the project's motor is an ac sychronous and is not dependent on
stable voltage as the speed is determined my the line frequency. As
previously stated, the 60hz US standard is highly regulated and monitored
and does have the same swing variance as does voltage.

The older PS Power Plants had the ability to both regenerate the ac voltage
and change the line frequency, therefore, they could be used as ac motor
controller, but their line frequency adjustment was too course for fine
adjustments. Both the Walker and VPI's SDS are good examples of a
successful implementation of an ac motor controller.

BTW, voltage regulators (good ones like Furman) do provide 120v stable
voltage. You don not need a power regenerator to produce stable voltage.
