The Rega Advanced EBLT drive belt is a precision-engineered upgrade, designed with a proprietary compound and custom tooling. It is standard on Planar 1, Planar 1 Plus, Planar 2, Planar 3, and Planar 6 models. After molding, each belt undergoes cryogenic freezing and barrel polishing to ensure perfect cross-sectional roundness, essential for improved speed accuracy and playback stability. Compared to previous versions, this belt offers a 50% longer lifespan under normal use and significantly reduces Wow and Flutter, enhancing sonic performance with a measured decrease from 0.253% to as low as 0.075%.
