No disrespect meant; but, all the hoopla over the Techy not spinning correctly at 45 rpm is based primarily on a specimen that had been tinkered with???

The 1200 motor is essentially the same as used in the 150Mk2, 1300/1400/1500Mk2, M1a, M2 & M3 and all of the platters on these decks are heavier than the 1200's and balanced. It seems to me the motor is overspec'd for the job, if anything. In addition I use a 454g record weight on top of that. I have no problems running 45 rpm. Granted the MN platter is certainly heavier; however, I do believe I've read that Richard from Vantage himself has offered/done upgrades to the stock platter with more aluminum on the bottom side not to mention Inspire's use of a heavier platter on the Monarch. I also don't recall ever reading posts here when the MN platter first had it's go around that anyone's deck had a problem spinning at 45 rpm. So, what gives here guys? Was this problem ever documented by watching a strobe, flutter tests? I could be wrong; but, this does seem strange that said issue has appeared this late in the game. If I missed such posts back in the day, I unreservedly apologize.

Can those still using a heavy platter (MN or Vantage upgraded) on a 1200, or an owner of the Inspire Monarch weigh in here, please??
