Rega RP10 - Manual (Page 4)

INTRODUCTION
The RP10 has been designed and engineered to achieve outstanding performance.
Excellent build quality, reliability and ease of use combine to make a product which, if
used correctly, will offer you a lifetime of musical enjoyment.
The
RP10 takes Rega’s design philosophy further than ever before. A radical new plinth
using custom designed materials, a new tonearm bearing assembly, a 24V low voltage
motor controlled by a hand tuned electronic power supply and a custom version of our
engineered hub bearing assembly. These are just some of the features of this amazing
new turntable designed to extract more music from your vinyl than ever before.
THE EVOLUTION OF REVOLUTION
Evolution is a well proven and documented process in many areas of our lives. This
applies in particular to design engineers and machines. Over the past forty years our
cars have become more reliable and economical whilst we take for granted the safety
and speed of modern aircraft. Rega is no exception to evolution. Rega’s experience and
previous achievements allows us to continually develop and produce better products.
The RP8 & RP10 represents probably the biggest step forward in the evolution of Roy
Gandy’s turntable design philosophies. Low mass, high rigidity plinths combined with
electronically controlled low vibration motors, high flywheel effect platters and lower
mass, higher stability tonearms. The RP10 is the second generation of our “skeletal”
design turntables offering groundbreaking levels of performance.
