Evening Gray, I opened the power adaptor box and had the weight out. I split the polystyrene when I pulled it out the 2nd time to have another look for the mat. I opened the turntable from the sealed side but the other side did look as though it was crumpled up and maybe stuck. Everything is...

Gray, I couldn't find it anywhere. I'm not sure if you seen the pictures I replied with to another response from another member. Here is how my platter was when taken from the plastic sealed bag

Here are 2 pictures of the contents received and the platter

I've just seen a video of the unboxing and the mat was already placed on the platter when he assembled the player. I'll need to buy one

Hello Gray. The turntable arrived this morning. The top of the platter looks pretty rough but doesn't feel it and I'm just a bit weary of putting records straight on it. Should I get a mat or does it even need one? I tried to return it this morning but the QR code didn't work. Amazon gave me a...

Hello, thanks for the reply. Yes, the box had 2 staples on the side of the box I opened. It all looked sealed. The player itself was all sealed inside a bag which I had to tear at the seem. Everything is in good shape but I'm just missing those 2 items.

Just received a brand new RP1 Plus today. When I opened the box it didn't contain a manual and assume it must be in a download format. The other thing is, there is no platter mat to sit on the platter. Should these be included?

Hello again Gray I can get the RP1 plus now after a couple of hours of negotiations to free an extra £60. So am I better off with the RP1 plus rather than the RP1 connected to the pp400?

Hello, I've read some reviews on players with automatic tone arms that don't play hidden songs at the end of a piece of vinyl. Some of my records have hidden tracks where there can be a large gap at the end of an album till the hidden song. I've never owned a player with a fully automatic tone...

Afternoon Gray. Thank you for your detailed reply. I'll probably go for the Rega Planar 1 with the pp400 for now. I've stretched my money as far as I can with furniture etc for my new place and wanted a decent TT with what I had left over. I was looking at the P1 Plus also but I doubt I can...

Thanks for the reply Gray, much appreciated. My budget is about £250 to 270. I was looking to put the majority of it toward a Rega Planar 1 and get the PP400. Could I get a better sound from splitting the ratio of budget player_preamp 150:100 etc?

Hello, I'm moving in to a new place and was looking at getting a record player which has no phono preamp built in. I have a set of powered speakers (M-Audio AV30's) from my previous studio setup. Each speaker has a 10 watt amp in but I'm not sure if I'll need a separate phono preamp still. There...
