RE: Rega P2 Tweaks ?

Question,

Are you inferring to an OLDER P2? as I know in some markets, a Grace 707 (in Australia is what they get, same with the older P3, before the RB 250/300 arms came out in the mid 80's or the current version that was released in 2016, also known as the P2?

I ask that question as that can make a bigger difference as rubberbands are no longer used (extra drive belt) for the motor mountings since they replaced the AC synchronous motor in 2016 for the P1 and P2, the P3 got the new motor in 2007.

As for bearings have NO idea, the Groovetracer sub platter is often the one to recommend for the phenolic subplatter (hub).

I have the current P6 in my system and I am leaving it damn well alone, but it does have a Grado Prestige Green 1 cart in it now and sounds great.

The rest, best to wait for others that are familiar with Regas, especially the older versions to come in and offer their input(s).
