REGA 600 OR 900

I recently bought a used Rega 25, and it is supposed to have a 900 arm on it, as opposed to the regular 600, but nowhere is the # stamped on the arm itself, and there wasn't any arm manual with it, just the small table manual. What I'm wondering, is there any sure way to tell the difference between the latest Rega 600 or 900 arm?? Thanks in advance for any replies.

I have a Rega-25 with the RB-600 arm.I believe the difference between the two is the 900 has a bit tighter bearings.I know of no way to be able to tell them apart.Contact Steve Laurman in Tenn.He imports for Rega.Maybe someone else knows his e-mail address or phone #

i thought all the 900's were black, & the 600's were a dark silver... mebbe i'm mistaken?

I believe that the 900 has a different mounting scheme than the others, with three outriggers for increased stability instead of the threaded cylinder. Seems like I saw that in a review of the P9, but that was a few years ago......my once "steel-trap" memory is more than a little rusty...
Hey David99, check out the vinyl double album of "A Perfect Circle," if you haven't already. It rocks! Virgin release 7243 8 49253 1 4
