The precision assembly of this sub-platter integrates ideal components into a single sub-platter design which is not available anywhere else – polished aircraft-grade aluminum hub (6061-T6 grade aluminum) with low carbon stainless steel extended spindle (316L stainless steel) and dual silicone 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 and 2017 Planar 6, in a number of 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 “hub” is the same height as the combined Rega two-piece sub-platter, but allows other upgrades. Dual pulley and silicone belts can be fitted with this sub-platter, which enhances speed stability even more for better dynamics (this can’t be done with the plastic Rega sub-platter).
Note: we also supply dual pulleys and belts for this.
PLATTER PROTECTION
The dual silicone rings grip and protect the platter (no metal to glass or metal to plastic contact – if you use a different platter) to cause scratches or wear.
The silicone rings isolate the platter from unwanted bearing vibration – lowering the noise floor.
Optional Auto-lubricated flat VHL terminal ending.
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 – which further enhances 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 “swap” over the sub-platters
High-quality silicone belt
Now including one FREE Ceramic Zirconia Ball Bearing!
