Teres Verus Rim Drive Motor with Pro-ject RM10


I'm thinking of buying a Teres Verus rim-drive motor, replacing my RM10's belt-drive motor and its SpeedBox SE controller. The Pro-ject has responded very well to the added isolation of an HRS M3 isolation base and a new Soundsmith "The Voice" (ebony) moving iron cartridge.

Has anyone tried this combination? If so, what were the results? Are there any issues that I should watch out for?

Jamnperry, thanks. I saw the excellent review elsewhere on A'gon and got the idea that zeroing the speed wasn't user friendly, BUT that's a seldom needed adjustment that I can live with checking periodically.

Thanks for the advice about the base. I've got Pro-ject's stock isolation base on top of an HRS M3 base, both of which have a large enough footprint for the Verus to lean against my platter on the same base.

Dougdeacon, I see that you're still with the belt drive. Why didn't you go with the Versus?

Dave
Doug, why do you speak in the plural? Do you have some sort of audio company?

Dave
Doug, once again, thanks for the clarification. I seldom see the "we" here, so it's nice to see someone with a regular listening partner. I occasionally have such luxury and find it both validating (that two people hear the same things) and just enjoyable.

Ciao,

Dave
