[quote name="baka1969" [/quote]Do you think getting Rega's external PSU would help with the speed stability issues?[/quote]

No not on it's own it won't. The problem is the way the motor is mounted to the plinth with a rubber band, which is to isolate motor noise. An upgrade to a quieter motor with a direct mounting, or an alternative isolated mounting system are the only solutions. I don't think it's worth the trouble or the cash IMO, esp considering the other decks I have in the pipeline

Awesome, looks like mine! Do you know where to get a new belt for it? I bet you have done a couple of belt replacements on it. And where could I buy a dust cover? Mine came without one, unfortunately :frowning2: but hey I got it for free with a Shure V15V-MR from the neighbors! :)

Jtaylor991, both belts and new dust covers for the CS-5000 are currently for sale on eBay. Belts are cheap; dust covers less so.

Nice looking TT the CS-5000!

I'll take the complement on the pics, thank you.  I am meticulous about cleaning everything (around my TT, at least), but that photo was taken while the table was turning.  I wonder if that helped with the reflection (took a few tries to get the pink near where I wanted).
 
The table, aside from the upgrade to the Blue Point 2, I have nothing to do with... Sumiko/Pro-Ject built that!  I thought it was a great introductory TT to mid/hi-fi world (#2 cart ups the ante a bit!).

I made a composite of mikerobe's great pics...
 

 
It actually makes a pretty nice wallpaper if the monitor isn't too big

^ There's no dust! Wow. I've never seen a cleaner stylus, cartridge, and grooves.
