I think that even five years is far too long, particularly if you use your 'table often. I'd also recommend taking a look at the belts from Origin Live, they can have an amazing upgrade effect on many decks

I have an Origin Live belt on my Gorbe turntable and will definitely get another.

I will have to check the size of the belt on my turntable if I were to buy a Origin Live belt, not sure where to get that info, what sort of price am I looking at for one these belts?. On the pro-j website for the belt I'm replacing it is about £19 but I have not looked into P&P that I may have to pay.

Well the belt does need replacing, Had a clean before looking at the belt and what came off the pulley was traces of what looks likes rubber (black stuff) then cleaned the belt. I did a speed check and from a WOW 2sigma of 0.39 is now down to 0.36, This can only improve with a new belt. So this is now top of my list for my HiFi.
