Silicon belt (model SB1) -USD20.00
Take a look at this silicon belt; it's neither black nor white; it's red, adding lively color to your TT!
" It doesn't matter if a cat is black or white, so long as it catches mice. "
- famous quote by Deng Xiaoping, former strongman of China.
Yes, it doesn't matter what color it is; it's the SOUND that matters.....

Just replaced the standard belt on the RP3 with the silicon belt. First impression is that the bass has firmed up giving more body .... |

FWIW I am using belts from Michael Lim for Planar 3. Excellent quality, spot-on diameter for accurate speed. They are of the same quality IMHO for US$20.00 as the infamous Rega branded "white belts" for a lot less than white belt pricing.They're the natural material colour-not coloured white or black. Probably due to no additional retail seller involvement plugging another $xxx.00 profit margin on top... Also I highly recommend the Michael Lim double pulley for 33 1/3RPM. Huge improvement in speed stability over the original plastic pulley. Cheers all. Cairne4me

Is this silicon belt better than the Rega white belt? Did you do a comparative?
The silicon belt is meant as replacement for worn-out or stretched standard Rega black belt and as such I have not done a comparative test with the white belt.
Hey Michael...the comment above u reprinted from VinylEngine.com about double 33rpm pulley & your red belts was made by ME ....but my username is actually mis-spelled...it is actually Cairns ( as in name of place I live in Nth Queensland, Oztraya ) not Cairne...Mentioned this cos going to make more comment post on VinylEngine soon.
