The TTPSU is powered by a wall wart? Hmm.. It been a few years since I had a P5.
I remember it being hardwired with the AC cord. Guess Rega changed things up with the design.
Seems a little odd, but I'm no EE. Rectify before the box? The P5 could be run by either a plain ol wall wart or TTPSU and I couldn't hear a difference. The speed selection made it a keeper.
I have heard that table with the Aphaeta. Very nice. If the RP10 were the same cost as the
VPI that replaced my Rega, I seriously would have considered it.
The fact you won't strain your back moving it makes very attractive. While I don't mind the sequence one must go through,(clamp,unclamp,turn off/on)I just left the P5 running and plop a record on. When finished, remove and drop another one. I don't however, think I would put up with an unclamped record now. Especially if I forked out 1k+ for a decent cart.
