I have been using the Hanze HiFi belts on my Thorens 124 for the last year or so. Absolutely the quietest belt I have ever found for the 124.
That said, I have had a small issue with them. With the first belt, after a few months, it started to make a lot of noise. I'd clean it (and the pulley surfaces) and it would quiet down again, only to make noise again after a little while. Rinse. Repeat.
I bought another one and had the same issue. Dead quiet operation for a few months and then noise.
Any thoughts/experiences from others on what might be happening?
