Rega Neo TTPSU

There are signs of wear and tear on the plinth, this is surface marking and have tried to show in photos at best.

Dust you can see on the lid, it's got a few tiny marks as it was a new one purchased 2 years ago. Static is an issue in our home due to carpets and two cats.

The RP6 was purchased in 2014 from a single user who was upgrading - he purchased 2011 new.

I do have a price of around £1100+ as a complete deck.
This is a Rega RP6 on Steroids so to speak - and of course open to a conversation

Here are some photos of the TT in one piece, I am also going to photograph each individual part prior to packaging up.

The only Rega Box I have left is the Neo TT PSU.

Ive created an imgur account, below is the link to the current images (09/05/2021)

I'm located in Whickham, NE16. Collection is preferred of course due to the nature of the beast. However I am willing to look at insured courier options for mainland UK posting.

My deck will be advertised on other Hi_fi forums, but it will NOT be listed on eBay.

PLEASE NOTE: The Ortofon 2M Black is NOT included - no cart is supplied.

Looks very nice. have a bump on me.

Out of interest could you say what the upgrades brought over the stock RP6 if its possible ?

thanks buddy.. if it doesn't go to a good vinyl lovers home as a complete deck, I will be selling the parts separately, last resort though.

regarding the upgrades brought: the soundstage is far wider and more dynamic in the mid ranges, bass response was tightened quite considerably with the new sub platter and platter.
JOnny at Audio origami worked his magic on the stock rb303 (which is a great arm anyway)... didn't get anymore slight sibilance on piano (probably the foam fill).

The neo is a step up also from the stock PSU.
I noticed more silence in the gaps after installing the SRM silent tech plinth which de-couples the motor also.
Finally the tango spinner triple brass pulley and belts really reduced the flutter/wow....so strings do no suffer :)

hope that helps buddy.

All in all it's a more engaging deck, loves vocals
