Hi Everyone, I am looking for a sixties or seventies record that has the 3150Hz test tone ( DIN Standard )

could anyone who has any Vinyl test records let me know which ones have this tone, not the more common American 3000Hz tone


thank you all
Peter

I dont see why youd want an old one?
Dr Feickert has the 7" Platter speed test record for a few tenners.
Otherwise Analogue Productions Ultimate Test LP also have got these but costs a lot more.
Good luck! :)

Hi Mike,

yes I have both of those already, the 7" Feickert is not even a perfect centre hole, I had to oval it a little with a nail file

anyway, I was more interested in making a list of all the Test Records that have 3150Hz tone on them, as I want to buy a few,
and it is very difficult when looking at auction listing if the record has the 3150Hz tone or not


all the best

Aha, thought you just needed one!
And yes, the quality of the Dr Feickert seems mediocre to say the least. Mine is about a mm off centre, that makes a LOT of wow on the charts.
But to be quite honest, my Analogue Productions is nowhere near perfect in that aspect neither... :/

It seems difficult to get a proper test-record for these tests...
