Garnet of Calgary, Canada has recently added some of my upgrades to his RP6. He is very happy with the sonic improvement. Here's his feedbacks : 

WOW!

Part 1 : Dual pulley, adjustable aluminium feet and acrylic platform upgrades:

hello michael....  i just installed my double pulley system,the new feet and the acrylic base.  The installation when smooth and HOLY COW what an improvement..bass mids and high end really came alive ...i am also using a delrin ceramic platter and a groove tracer sub platter and new counterweight...but i think the double belt system from you really bring my turntable into a another class...no more a mere rega rp6 now this is REGZILLA....can not thank you enough..... Garnet Moffat...

Part 2 : Acrylic Plinth, top and bottom bracings and motor isolation base :

hi michael... got my parts today and i installed them... the acrylic plinth upgrade was almost too easy to install ...plus it sure helped the sound and looks ..lots of audiophiles in Calgary are more than impressed with my new turntable and i expect they will follow and do the same thing to their  Regas.... WOW what a upgrade...the only thing i had to do is to replace the 2 round head machine screws with flat head machine screws on the top of the plith holding down the bracing that is because the delrin plater sits so low it was rubbing on the screws..... now that i am finished i will send you some photos in the near future.....thank you very much..... Garnet Moffat.... ps  having the motor housing sure did make a big change

Part 3 : Audiomod with micrometer series 5 tonearm, Ortofon Candenza Blue moving coil cartridge and a Avid Pulsus 2 phono preamp :

hi michael... Told you one day that I was going to install a Audiomods series 5 with micometer tonearm..well i just did it today along with a Ortofon Candenza Blue moving coil cartridge and a Avid Pulsus 2 phono preamp.. this is now my super Gr !

Thanks Garnet !

Dual pulley and aluminium sub-platter have been the most popular upgrades for Rega TT owners. Many began their tweaking journey with these two components. Some may go on after that .... seeking for more improvements. And the others may just stop here considering the rest unnecessary. 

What about counter-weight? Is it listed to be part of your upgrade project? I remember it was not on the top of my list either when I first started to tweak my Rega turntable.  But when I first set up my underslung counterweight to test, my wife "wow" at the big improvement! 

You have to try yourself to believe it!

Glad to know Yann from France has agreed with me too!

Dear Michael Your counterweight is a great improvement! All is cleaner and bass is now controlled. Many thanks for your work.  I think I'll go back to you for other purchase...  Kind Regards  Yann

Thanks , Yann!
