This high-performance sub-platter has been specifically designed for the Rega RP6 and 2017 Planar 6 turntables. We also manufacture other high-performance sub-platters for other turntables, including Rega (RP3,... etc.). Read also about.
The precision assembly of this sub-platter integrates ideal components into a single sub-platter design which is not available anywhere else and a polished aircraft-grade aluminum hub (6061-T6 grade aluminum) with low carbon stainless steel extended spindle (316L stainless steel) and dual EPDM belts to grip the platter and isolate it from vibration.
The use of this single precision assembly sub-platter will enhance the already excellent performance of your Rega RP6 / 2017 Planar 6 in many areas:
SPEED STABILITY
The diameter of the polished aircraft-grade aluminum hub is controlled with better precision than the injection-molded plastic Rega hub (bottom part of 2-piece original sub-platter), for enhanced speed stability/timing.
The design of this single-piece &ldquohub&rdquo is the same height as the combined Rega two-piece sub-platter, but allows other upgrades.
PLATTER PROTECTION
The dual EPDM rings grip and protects the platter (no metal-to-glass or metal-to-plastic contact &ndash if you use a different platter) to cause scratches or wear.
LOWER NOISE FLOOR
The EPDM rings to isolate the platter from unwanted bearing vibration &ndash lowering the noise floor.
Hardened steel shaft and matching precision ball bearing lower noise floor and will not wear after 8,000 hours of use (a lifetime!).
RECORD CLAMP
The extended low carbon high tensile steel shaft enables a wide range of record clamps and stabilizers to be used, further enhancing the sound quality.
High Precision tolerances are applied during the manufacture of this sub-platter to ensure a low coefficient of friction in use.
This sub-platter is supplied as a kit which includes:
RP6 subplatter as shown in the pictures
Instructions on how to &ldquoswap&rdquo over the sub-platters
3 High-quality EPDM belts
Now including one FREE Ceramic Zirconia Oxide Ball Bearing.
TRIPLE 33 1/3 BRASS PULLEY
Building on the core design principles of the forthcoming top-of-the-range Rega NAIAD turntable, we have designed, tested, and implemented a triple pulley for use with the Rega RP6 and 2017 Planar 6 Turntables.
Note: Due to IATA regulations, oils cannot be included in international parcels, so for TangoSpinner products lubrication we recommend semisynthetic SAE15W50 or similar oils.
