One thing I didn't tell you on the phone is that a transformer a few
blocks away exploded some months ago. Unlike our neighbors, we managed
not to lose electricity. But, I'm wondering if that had anything to do
with it.
Anyway, I just read online about polarity and phonographs, and I don't
think this is the problem we're experiencing. The "wow" on the turntable
is rather dramatic -- the phase is out by about 0.5 seconds or so. It
sounds as if the record is warped. It's unlistenable.
I'm sad that we'd have to get a new record player to fix this problem
given that it works fine at the shop and, before 5 months ago, it had been
working fine for years.
