I found out about the sapphire flats once I saw the extra wear on the spindle. About $100 for the flat plus the machining to get the spindle flat, square, and the precise length That was just one of the many upgrades needed to take the RP3 to the next level. The Kenwood 770D "bearing" is a pad of UHMW or HDPE.There is no hard surface to hard surface to cause rumble. The contact surface is 3/8ths of an inch or so in diameter and flat so psi measurements are not comparable to the Rega. The manufacturer of a heavy direct drive with excellent speed control can use a technology like that. Those kind of features are why you upgrade.
