Dual Pulley (45/45 rpm)  - USD 48.00
(model DP1M : 50Hz , DP2M : 60Hz)

If you have read my earlier post on a 45/45rpm dual pulley for music professor, Charles Hansen's system , this pulley might interest you.

Just a brief introduction, Music Hall Cruise Control power supply is quite commonly used with Rega turntables. Like Rega TTPSU, switching from 33rpm to 45rpm is easily done without having to change the belt position manually. Besides there are other advantages over Rega TTPSU:

i) There's no need to upgrade to a new 24V motor (cost saving for you).
ii) Your TT speed could be fine-adjusted by small steps to the desired value.

However, there is something to take note here: for Rega TTPSU, the TT belt parks at 33rpm pulley groove whereas for Music Hall, it's at 45rpm. So if you are going for a dual-belt system with Music Hall power supply, you can't use the 33.3/33.3rpm dual pulley. You have to go for a 45/45rpm dual pulley.

As there are requests for time to time for this pulley, I have made a small quantity available in my list for those who are going for this tweak. In my opinion as I have mentioned in earlier post, "when the belt is parked at 45(pulley groove)with this external power supply, the motor runs slower for 33 play-back, thus reducing motor noise and vibration. Significant sonic improvement can be expected."

Hope this is good news to those who are waiting for it! Happy tweaking!


Pulley puller , PR1 : USD12.00
Note : This 45/45rpm dual pulley is also suitable for any Rega TT using Pro-ject 100V/230V TTPSU where the TT belt is also parked at 45rpm pulley groove.


Music professor, Charles Hansen's suggestion  :


....... . I would suggest that, for owners of the P25, using your double 45/45 rpm pulley in combination with the Music Hall Cruise Control 2.0 is really the way to go. Easy instalation and not so expensive. Years ago, I bought an Iorn Audio acrylic platter to replace the glass/felt combination on my P25. That was a probably a "minor" upgrade. A year or so ago, I bought a reference subplatter from GrooveTracer and a white Rega belt. That added a good measure of clarity to the sound. However, it wasn't until I added the Music Hall Cruise Control 2.0, your custom double pulley, aluminum feet and silicone belts to the mix that everything really came together for me. Just brilliant! 

My congratulations to you for such fantastic engineering and design work and the machining skill to bring these designs to life. I really appreciate your willingness to make that custom pulley for me. I'm so glad that I found out about your products! They have changed my analog life for sure. I will spend the coming months getting to know my 4,500+ collection of lps all over again. 

Kindest Regards, 

Charles Hansen

Hi Michael, 

Yes, it came Saturday. It's taken a couple of days to get everything set up. 

Right away I heard a difference. I didn't really expect to, but I did. I'd been using the stock pulley with the Rega "white belt," and switching to the dual 45 rpm pulley and dual belts definitely tightened the bass. 

Let me second the Music Hall Cruise Control with dual 45 rpm pulley: a brilliant combo. 

 I'll send more when I've had some time to do some listening, and try to get some pics too. 

Thanks again 
Dennis Ryan
