Did you notice any difference in the performance of records played on the SX8000 platter once the 5000 platter was running with it? Did the additional flywheel effect manifest itself in any way?
Guy, you are referring to the older thread:

The answer would be that I do not know how additional flywheel affects the given TT sound.

The SX-8000 and RX-5000 have differently sounding platters, very differently, and it took for me some time to make the RX-5000 to sound better. Still I feel that SX-8000’s platter is way more interesting and therefore all my “better” arm/needles are clustered around the SX-8000.

The flywheel effect? As I said I do not know, as I do not feel that there is any difference. I personally did not believe before into the flywheel effect in context of those type turntables and in context of the given driving methods and I do not feel that I have any evidence to change my view.
