Rega Drive Pulley Issue


I bought my Rega P5 in January of this year and recently purchased the optional power supply (TT PSU). The table sounds great although I just noticed that the main drive pulley has a slight wobble. I can not hear any wow or flutter from the wobble. So, my question is do any of you that own a Rega table notice any wobble from your drive pulley. Is this normal, or a defect? If this is a defect, should they replace the table, or replace the whole motor assembly? I am a vinyl newbie, so any advice on this matter would be appreciated.

Thanks for you input!!

Rick-I've been reading several of your posts since you purchased your Rega TT. You and I are cut from the same cloth-we're VERY hard to please and we worry a lot! It sounds like this TT experience is not fun but stressful. Needless to say, it's supposed to be fun. TTs are the joint. NOTHING else gives me the same pleasure in hifi. So...I suggest you get yourself a TT that rocks your world AND is as close to perfect (from a manufacturing perspective) as it can be. Do I have any ideas? Move up the Rega line, or get a Linn LP 12 (as long as you have a great set-up person close to your home).
