No. Varying the speed DEFINTELY makes a HUGE difference. I've been known to push my poor little 60 Hz motor up to 300 Hz for quite a few bps. Forget about peaks and zero crossings with async.

There is only one spot on the sign wave that is peak, might run better little before or after or at top. Don't have to worry using async. :)

Async with variable speed, whether AC or DC motor. My sweet spot changes with every tweak, so a constant speed async would likely never hit the sweet spot.
