VPI SDS/ADS PSU with Rega Turntable?

Has anyone tried using a VPI speed controller / power supply such as the new ADS or the older SDS with a Rega TT?


I have a P3 whose motor is getting a bit weak (very slow to start up) and I'm considering finally updating it with the Rega 24V motor. This would make the Rega TT PSU an option now, but considering that Regas are know to run a bit fast,  was thinking about getting something that would allow me to fine-tune the speed. Has anyone tried this?

If speed stability and accuracy is your main concern, I think you will have better luck with the older SDS.  Apparently, the ADS does not have the same stability as the SDS and adjustability can be an issue near the center detent position.  There is a technical review on-line here:
