The Vertere RG-1 Reference Groove Record Player is a high-end turntable that incorporates carefully-considered design choices to provide peerless performance and the most silent platform for the arm and cartridge. With a super precision main bearing and a two-piece non-resonant platter assembly, the RG-1 offers an unparalleled vinyl listening experience that brings every note and word to life.

Vertere RG-1 Reference Groove Record Player

Re-create the live music experience with Record Player RG-1 Reference Groove, Vertere’s finest model and first choice among the world’s high-end turntables. Record Player RG-1 Reference Groove embodies all Vertere’s unrivalled expertise in quality audio engineering, high-end hi-fi systems and turntables.

Offering peerless performance through uncompromising engineering, Vertere’s Record Player RG-1 Reference Groove incorporates innumerable carefully-considered design choices that make it supreme among turntables. The RG-1 includes a super precision main bearing and a two-piece non-resonant platter assembly to provide the most silent platform for the arm and the cartridge. The result is the ‘darkest’ background achievable from vinyl, against which every note played and every word sung comes to life.

The main bearing assembly comprises an aerospace-grade phosphor bronze housing, a super-precision tungsten carbide spindle and silicon nitride ball. The housing is machined and finished to the tightest of tolerances, with the bearing spindle sized to ensure the minimum gap possible between the spindle and the housing. The only contact is between the spindle and the precision ball supporting it at the bottom.

The design of the bearing assembly ensures that the ball is housed absolutely central to the spindle. The main bearing is lubricated using Vertere’s proprietary bearing oil, L-1G, which ensures almost perfectly silent running. This lubricating oil is formulated with anti-friction, anti-foaming, water repellent and cooling agents for longevity and best performance..

RG-1 Reference Motor Drive

RG-1 Reference Motor Drive with its most advanced control circuit design, implemented to its limits, allows us to achieve maximum performance from our world renowned RG-1 Reference Record Player & Reference Tonearm.
There are 7 speed adjustments via the front rotary knob allowing fine and exact ‘fixed’ speed selection of +/- 0.25%, 0.50%, 0.75%, 1.00%, 1.50%, 2.00% and 3.00% about the original 33 & 45 rpm.
RG-1 Motor Drive takes full control of the record player motor and provides the smoothest drive with minimum noise and distortion. The music that is extracted from the vinyl unbelievably resembles the original master that the record was cut from. Closest to the original master.

Platter Insert

Topside of the RG‐1 platter insert is precision machined to provide the bonding area for the 2mm cast Acrylic record interface disc.

The underside, on the other hand, is done as the precise fit to the topside of the main platter.

Six small stainless screws, from the underside ensure the two pieces are held perfectly together in non‐resonant state.

Special Metallic Finishes

Special Metallic Black, Pearlescent White & Champagne finishes available for the RG-1 record player at a premium

The Vertere emblem printed on the top plinth adds the final finishing touch.

  • RG-1 Record Player is supplied with Plinth, RG Bearing, 2-piece Platter & Tempo Motor Drive, Tonearm not included.

Great, but a little big…
Style: Lambchop, Size: 10"
Super soft and cute, I got this for my toy Cavapoo puppy. The different textures are perfect. It is a little bigger than I was expecting, and will probably be about the same size as my puppy when I get her, but I’m sure she’ll love it. I don’t know how safe it will be yet since I’ve yet to be able to watch her play with it, but I don’t see anywhere that could have loose strings for her to choke on, so I’d say it’s pretty safe. Overall a perfect toy for dogs, with a squeaker and nice textures for the dog to chew on.

Great value for the price
Style: White, Size: 24" Jumbo
I have gotten smaller versions of this Lamb chop, my dog has loved them all the same but this one is great. It's big enough for him to carry around and it lasts a lot longer since he likes to tear them up fast.

Dog is in love with this Toy!
Color: Assorted, Size: Medium
This is a super great dog toy & one of the best we have purchased for miss "destroy the toy" dog! I have an Australian Cattle Dog who has a pretty big chomp reflex. She destroys most all of her ball toys in just a few minutes because she chomps so hard. So far, this is the only "open type" of dog ball toy she has not ruined quickly. It's actually lasted over a year so far! It is showing some wear & tear & a couple ares have almost been chomped through, but that would be expected with the way she chomps on it. She absolutely adores this toy & it is her total favorite! It has been well worth the money & then some for her. I've already bought a couple of "spares" but she is still playing with the original one I bought. Please note: I never, ever leave it alone with her! I use it only to throw or kick & for her to chase & retrieve. I try not to let her just chew & chomp on it, but that is what she'd really like to do. We play with it all year long, even in the snow. It's fun in winter because it does not sink & get lost in deep snow as quickly as a tennis ball sized toy would. It fills up a bit with snow, but that seems to make it even more fun for my dog. I highly recommend this toy. I just wish JW would offer it in some other brighter colors besides the blue. 01/06/2016 Update: My dog still is playing with this very same Hol-ee Roller X Extreme! I'd bought her a couple of spares but this 1st one is still holding up under her chompers! It's worn looking but has not torn or broke yet. I do not let her just sit and chomp on it though. It used as a retrieving and chasing toy, but she does get a few goods chomps in each time she gets it. We play with this toy basically every single day, so I'd say this is a very durable dog toy and the best one I have bought ! I highly recommend it.
