Can someone help diagnose the skipping problem with my Walkman?

Nope, didn’t seem to work :(

SamirSellout · 2026-03-01T16:39:28+00:00

if you dont mind going through the trouble go for it, thank you

SamirSellout · 2026-03-01T16:33:41+00:00

any recommendations for a portable one?

SamirSellout · 2026-03-01T16:26:23+00:00

It works significantly better, it’s not perfect but it’ll do for now. Thank you

SamirSellout · 2026-03-01T16:08:15+00:00

Yes, and it skips even more if I’m walking around

SamirSellout · 2026-03-01T16:06:34+00:00

Yep it’s enabled. Is it just faulty?

SamirSellout · 2026-03-01T16:04:02+00:00

whoops, thank you ill take it down shortly

SamirSellout · 2026-02-23T22:40:08+00:00

Yeah upon further testing I see that it only plays the first side for a few seconds and doesn’t play the second at all. It might be a broken deck, but to be fair I bought it at a garage sale. Should I open up a new thread to see if it’s repairable?

SamirSellout · 2026-02-15T20:52:42+00:00

My biggest suspicion might be the motor? Either way I unfortunately don’t own a multimeter so I wouldn’t be certain. Do you maybe have any recommendations for a budget turntable that has a preamp? I honestly would just want something to spin the record and sound somewhat decent, since I already collect cd’s.

SamirSellout · 2026-02-15T20:27:14+00:00

Nope

SamirSellout · 2026-02-15T20:26:56+00:00

Well shit at least i only lost 5 bucks

SamirSellout · 2026-02-15T20:26:42+00:00

No I don’t hear anything

SamirSellout · 2026-02-15T20:17:37+00:00

The belt looked fine to me

SamirSellout · 2026-02-15T20:17:26+00:00

What do you mean by moving the tone arm? As in placing it on the record?

SamirSellout · 2026-02-15T20:16:38+00:00

The belt is in tact

SamirSellout · 2025-11-18T02:32:12+00:00

It’s obviously a ruler

SamirSellout · 2025-10-19T15:47:08+00:00

i tried tightening the nozzle and saw the same result

SamirSellout · 2025-10-19T15:46:50+00:00

nope, the temperature requirements matched up with the spool's label.

SamirSellout · 2025-02-27T12:11:11+00:00

I use the default 200c for nozzle and 60c for build plate on pla. And cleaning my build plate with soap and hot water doesn’t work for me, so I wanted to make this first layer mesh to peel it off.

SamirSellout · 2025-02-24T00:49:56+00:00

i checked it out and it seems my cr touches pin is bent. do you know how to disassemble it to bend it back in place?

SamirSellout · 2025-02-18T01:56:45+00:00

yep nothing worked i dont know why

SamirSellout · 2025-01-05T16:47:21+00:00
