RG-1 Iso Shelf

The Vertere RG-1 Reference Groove Iso Shelf is a premium isolation platform engineered to enhance the performance of Vertere turntables, particularly the RG-1 model. Crafted from clear cast acrylic, this shelf serves as a dedicated support system that effectively decouples the turntable from external vibrations, thereby reducing noise and improving sound clarity.

Key Features:

• Material & Design: Constructed from high-quality clear cast acrylic, the Iso Shelf provides a stable and acoustically inert platform for the turntable.

• Isolation Mechanism: The shelf includes six ‘Iso-Balls’ designed to isolate the turntable from its supporting surface, minimizing the transmission of vibrations.

• Optional Enhancements: For enhanced isolation, the Iso Shelf can be paired with additional accessories such as the Iso Foot Isolation Couplers or the Silencer Support Pods. The Iso Foot Isolation Couplers offer additional decoupling, while the Silencer Support Pods combine a hard felt resistive coupling foot, a direct coupling ball, and an isolating layer of Sorbothane to further reduce vibrations and improve low-frequency resolution .

• Aesthetic Options: The Iso Shelf is available in several finishes to match your setup: Black Metallic, Pearlescent White, Champagne, and Clear

• Compatibility: While designed for the RG-1 Reference Groove turntable, the Iso Shelf is also suitable for other models in the Vertere range, providing versatility across different setups.

Performance Benefits:

By isolating the turntable from external vibrations, the RG-1 Iso Shelf contributes to a significant reduction in background noise, enhancing stereo focus and low-frequency resolution. This improvement in isolation can lead to a listening experience akin to upgrading to a higher-end moving coil cartridge, providing a more detailed and immersive soundstage.

Conclusion:

The Vertere RG-1 Reference Groove Iso Shelf is an essential accessory for audiophiles seeking to maximize the performance of their Vertere turntables. Its thoughtful design and effective isolation capabilities make it a valuable addition to any high-end audio setup.
