This tonearm features a new aluminium vertical bearing housing, a redesigned sleeve and vertical bearing shaft (both manufactured from stainless steel) to improve mounting stability and overall rigidity. The advanced tonearm tube is designed using intelligent redistribution of mass, ensuring this arm will exhibit fewer points of possible resonance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"large-10 large-offset-1 xlarge-8 xlarge-offset-2 xxlarge-6 xxlarge-offset-1 xxxlarge-6 xxxlarge-offset-1 xxxxlarge-5 cell\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"heading-2\"\u003eFine tuning an icon\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe extreme levels of stability achieved, coupled with almost friction free movement from the high precision hand matched bearing assemblies, guarantee to gather more information from your vinyl than ever before. You will also find a Rega made new low capacitance phono cables terminated with high specification phono plugs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRega is famed for its tonearm designs. One unique characteristic of these designs is the achievement of near frictionless movement horizontally and vertically whilst having no measurable free play in the bearing assemblies. A brand new low mass precision engineered vertical bearing assembly has been manufactured to further complement the inherent design philosophy of the Planar 8 turntable. The RB880 uses the latest Rega arm tube. Completely redesigned to redistribute mass and further reduce stresses and resonances. This advanced design tube increases the stiffness and rigidity of the overall assembly using CAD design to blend the multiple varying tapers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExternally we have fitted a bespoke Rega designed low capacitance phono cable. Which uses an advanced phono plug assembly. This has only two parts to minimise joints and incorporates a twist and clamp design locking the plug to the terminal. The design increases connectivity and ensures the signal path is kept as clean as possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"distributors-buttons show-for-xxlarge\"\u003e\n\u003ca class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rega.co.uk\/dealers\"\u003eUK Dealers\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rega.co.uk\/global-distributors\"\u003eGlobal Distributors\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"large-10 large-offset-1 xlarge-8 xlarge-offset-2 xxlarge-4 xxlarge-offset-0 xxxlarge-4 xxxxlarge-offset-1 cell\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"heading-5 uppercase\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"bullet-list green-bullets\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRedesigned aluminium vertical bearing housing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRedesigned sleeve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated arm clip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproved spring housing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRega's award winning low mass aluminium tonearm tube\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtreme stability and almost friction free movement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand selected bearings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca id=\"azvmdy-smooth-scroll\" data-smooth-scroll=\"n9cgtn-smooth-scroll\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rega.co.uk\/products\/rb880#lifetime-warranty\"\u003eLifetime warranty\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eagainst manufacture defects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"heading-5 uppercase\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"dl-ruled dl-ruled--specs\"\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eEffective Mass\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLow \/ 11 g\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMounting Distance (platter centre to arm hole centre)\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e222 mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eEffective length\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e236.5 mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eOffset Angle\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e21.55°\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eOverhang\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e14.5 mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"HIFIPRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41848558747710,"sku":null,"price":1799.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0563\/2209\/7214\/files\/rb880-intro.jpg?v=1752264193","url":"https:\/\/hifipro.ca\/en\/products\/rega-rb880-tonearm-ta-rb880-retail-uni","provider":"HIFIPRO","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
