I hate to say this, as you have a beautiful machine, but it "warbles" or "flutters" just like the issue covered in another recent post here in this board.

I think it was the record, if you listen toward the middle of the record, her voice does not warble. I did not observe any flutter on other records I played either.

I got to see and hear this machine here, it's very nice and cleaned up nicer. We only played one BA on it here since the reproducer needed rebuilding, but there was no flutter that I can recall.
I've always wanted an Opera, but at least I got to see this one for while!
