Vertere SG-1 Super Groove Record Player

The Vertere SG-1 Super Groove Record Player is a high-performance turntable with a structural design that isolates unwanted movements and ensures constant speed. It shares the same plinth structure and components as the RG-1 Reference Groove and can be upgraded to the RG-1 by replacing the main bearing and platter assemblies.

Vertere SG-1 Super Groove Record Player

Bringing music to life in the home, Vertere’s Record Player SG-1 Super Groove can take you close to perfection in turntable performance.

Key feature of the Vertere Record Player SG-1 Super Groove is the same structural coherence as you find on the RG-1 Reference Groove. Both record players use the same high-speed synchronous motor and they have the same structural design, incorporating compliance that isolates the record-playing platform from unwanted movements, whether internally or externally induced.

The external motor drive power supply unit ensures constant speed and smooth running of the motor, which in turn is enclosed and articulated in exactly the same way as with the RG-1

The SG-1 shares the same plinth structure design and components as used on the RG-1 and provides the optimum platform for the tonearm and cartridge to work on. There is a pathway to upgrade the SG-1 to the RG-1, by simply replacing the main bearing and platter assemblies if and when desired.

The Record Player SG-1 Super Groove will bring any record collection to life and provide many years of musical enjoyment.

SG-1 Record Player is supplied with Plinth, SG Bearing, SG Platter & Tempo Motor Drive, Tonearm Not Included.
