Upgrading a Rega RB250 tonearm with a Pete Riggle VTAF.

I've been wanting to upgrade my Rega RB250 tonearm for some time. I looked at several of the modding companies like Origin Live, but it's just not in the cards for me. A few years ago I came across the Pete Riggle Audio Engineering site and was most impressed by the reviews and apparent quality of his VTAF unit. Are any of you familiar with this site and/or have experience with this product? For a few hundred dollars I think this may well be a worthwhile investment to improve my overall vinyl playback experience.

Perhaps one of you could review the site and look at the unit in question and give me your opinion as to its claims. Any and all feedback is appreciated, so thank you much in advance!

Hi John72953. I did this mod a couple of years back on my Rega P3. It really isolates the arm from the table, and Peter posted my reply to him on his customer feedback. What it did for me, is let the music through without the noise from the table itself. You can easily hear the benefits right away. You just have to get the nerve to do some surgery to the plinth. Hope this helps.
Cheers, Plastico

Hello plastico and welcome!

I never did get the VTAF upgrade as Peter advised against it for my TT, which is a Nottingham Analogue Horizon SE. I did end up getting his counterweight for my RB250 though.
