The Vertere Acoustics Tempo Motor Drive enhances musical performance, making the experience of listening to vinyl on the RG-1 or the SG-1 much closer to the original master recording.

When playing vinyl records, the music we hear, in reality, comes from the motor.

The motor is the only source of energy in the system, and it is this energy that drives the record past the stylus, thus making the music we hear. Any amount of noise or fluctuation in the drive system will adversely impact the music. Detail, dynamics, timbre, timing and musicality are just some of the qualities that will suffer as a result.

The Vertere Acoustics Tempo Precision Motor Drive takes control of the record player motor, providing it with smoother drive, lower noise and lower distortion. As with the Vertere reference motor drive, the internal circuits are uniquely microprocessor based, providing pure sine waves in the digital domain, then converting to analogue via an on-board DAC. Two waveforms are derived – cosine and sine – which are then amplified using two bridged amplifiers to power the motor.

Includes Tempo Motor Link 1.15m.
