RB Titanium

← Back to RB Titanium

The RB Titanium tonearm is the most advanced and accurate production tonearm Rega has ever manufactured. The entire tonearm structure is designed to have the minimum of mechanical joints whilst using the stiffest materials in all critical areas. The RB Titanium was originally designed to complement Rega's highest performing turntable the Naia, it is now available for the first time to purchase separately as a retail model.

ULTIMATE PRECISION — The RB Titanium achieves near frictionless movement horizontally and vertically whilst having no measurable free play in the bearing assemblies. The RB Titanium uses a new one-piece titanium vertical bearing housing and titanium vertical spindle assembly. The design is completed with a Tungsten balance weight shaft and balance weight. The RB Titanium tonearm is packed with new features pushing the boundaries of tonearm design. As with all Rega tonearms, each one is meticulously hand-built by a team of highly skilled technicians. The RB Titanium uses Rega's highest graded bearings with each set being hand selected to be an interference fit with the paired spindle matching both the inside and outside diameters. This is a Rega developed method of increasing the amount of detail retrieved from the record surface, designed specifically to maximise performance of the tonearm and cartridge.
