Michell Tecnoweight + RB700 Tonearm - Reversible??


Howdy Everyone,

In a few days, I'll be getting a Rega P5 that has the Michell Tecnoweight already installed in the RB-700 tonearm.

Can anyone tell me if the Tecnoweight can be uninstalled easily?

Basically, I just want to try the RB-700 with its original Rega counterweight, if that's possible.

Any help is most appreciated!

Tecnoweight can be removevd easily but the question is why would you want to go back to stock Rega counter weight?
Jaspert,

I was simply curious to see how the Rega stands on its own without the frills - and it's also a way to confirm if the Tecnoweight is a truly audible difference.

Is it easy to put the original Rega "stub" (I think that's what they call it) back into the tonearm?

If there's some sort of risk of damage, I will probably leave the Tecnoweight in...
Yes , generaly they are easy to remove. However the possibilty of damage is always there on how you handle the arm itself and how much force it takes to get it started moving. The stubs in the regas have been known to be occaissionly stubborn but not always. I,d leave it, and leave curiosity to the cat ! Cheers
