Wow, today's technology ... do we really need an apt to hear timing issues?
Making a perfect Turntables / drive system is a compromised affair; belters have long been scrutinized for their "inherited" timing issues, conversely the so-called DD advantage has always been "superior" timing ... that ... despite the fact that many DD turntables I've witnessed reproduce a piano as if it required tuning.
To my ears, "measuring" proper timing is as easy as comparing better digital to better vinyl. When I listen to an excellent analog based system, with any drive, timing issues have rarely become the sonic showstopper that others often suggest.
