Verdier' s motor Upgrade

Hi

It is possible to replace the motor of the Verdier by another for 2000 Dollars ( GT audio In UK) wich seems to increase the performances of it .

What do you think of it ?

It is also possible to get a PSU battery ( 2000 dollars also) for the classical VERDIER 's motor unit ,

What is the best way to do in your opinion to obtain the most important increasing :

Changing the motor unit first or keeping the Verdier's motor and take the PSU battery supply

Thanks

You can also buy a TW Accustic (German) DC motor and controller for the Verdier. In the USA, it is about $2500. In Europe, I don't know.

Hi Bigbucks5

Have you upgraded too a TW DC motor? If so, are they as good as they say? I am pondering an upgrade myself.

Thanks

Nope, have not upgraded. Don't see any reason to do so. Now, if and when the PV motor unit fails, I'll certainly think about a different replacement.

Buy the battery PSU first. I have Platine Verdier and bought the GT Audio Battery PSU (Type 1) to use with the standard motor. This has transformed the PV and lowered the noise floor to silence. If you buy the better PSU, you also need to buy the special GTA motor housing. I would save the money towards something else eg a Schroeder if you haven't got one!!
