Despite its approachable positioning within the Vertere lineup, the DG-1 incorporates many of the company’s most innovative engineering concepts, resulting in a highly refined vinyl playback system focused on precision, low resonance behavior, and musical engagement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery element of the DG-1 has been carefully optimized to reduce unwanted vibration, improve rotational stability, and preserve delicate cartridge signal integrity. From its precision synchronous motor and advanced microprocessor-controlled drive system to its unique flat-profile tonearm and innovative thread bearing architecture, the DG-1 delivers a distinctly sophisticated approach to high-performance vinyl playback.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f39c12; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE MOTOR\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DG-1 utilizes a 24-pole Precision Synchronous motor individually tuned to minimize operational noise and vibration. Controlled by circuitry derived from Vertere’s flagship RG-1 Reference Motor Drive, the system incorporates a single microprocessor-controlled PCB that is both precision addressable during manufacture and programmable for future upgrades. An offboard power supply further isolates unwanted electrical interference while copper and stainless steel shielding protect the sensitive electronics from noise contamination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f39c12; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PLATTER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrive to the platter is transferred through a precision-machined aluminium alloy pulley and bespoke silicone rubber drive belt designed for exceptional smoothness and durability. Electronic speed selection is conveniently controlled via a rear-mounted switch, eliminating the need for manual belt repositioning. The platter itself is precision-machined aluminium alloy with a bonded PETG record interface mat on the surface, while a cork, Neoprene, and nitrile bonded resonance control disc underneath minimizes unwanted platter resonance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f39c12; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE BEARING\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DG-1 platter rotates on a highly polished stainless steel spindle riding within a precision bearing housing utilizing a super precision tungsten carbide ball.

This three-layer non-resonant tonearm beam minimizes resonance and ringing effects commonly associated with traditional tonearm tubes. Signal transmission is handled via a flexible gold-plated PCB integrated directly into the tonearm structure, providing a continuous one-piece signal path from the cartridge connections to the output terminals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f39c12; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE THREAD BEARINGS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstead of conventional bearing assemblies, the DG-1 employs an innovative thread-based bearing system utilizing twisted nylon threads for both horizontal and vertical tonearm movement. These ultra-light thread bearings exhibit virtually no stiction, provide silent operation, and deliver natural self-damping characteristics for highly precise tonearm movement and exceptional tracking performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f39c12; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PLINTH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DG-1 plinth utilizes a sophisticated three-layer acrylic sandwich construction combining non-resonant cast acrylic with silicone rubber isolation between the plinth and platter assembly. The internally illuminated design integrates the speed indicator, control button, and user-selectable standby mood lighting into a clean, modern aesthetic. The complete assembly is supported by a rigid steel chassis with three adjustable feet and includes a non-resonant acrylic dustcover with integrated hinges for a sleek appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f39c12; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePACKAGE INCLUDES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStylus Balance\u003cbr\u003eD-Fi Interconnects\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f39c12; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Belt Drive Turntable\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMotor:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24 Pole Synchronous\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMotor Mount:\u003c\/strong\u003e Axially De-coupled\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMotor Drive:\u003c\/strong\u003e Advanced Microprocessor Controlled\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMotor Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fully Programmable with Motor Noise Reduction\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePulley:\u003c\/strong\u003e Super Precision Aluminium Alloy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Belt:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bespoke Silicone Rubber\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSelectable Speeds:\u003c\/strong\u003e 33.3rpm, 45rpm (±0.2%) Electronically Selectable\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlatter:\u003c\/strong\u003e Precision Machined Aluminium Alloy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecord Interface:\u003c\/strong\u003e PETG Bonded Record Interface Mat\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eResonance Control:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cork \/ Neoprene \/ Nitrile Bonded Disc\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBearing Spindle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless Steel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBearing Construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Super Precision Machined and Polished\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRoundness \/ Concentricity:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026lt; 5 Microns\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBearing Housing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brass, Super Precision Machined\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBearing Bore Tolerance:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026lt; 5 Microns\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBearing Ball:\u003c\/strong\u003e Super Precision Tungsten Carbide Ball\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlinth Structure:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 Layer Acrylic Construction\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIsolation System:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 Point Bespoke Silicone Rubber\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSupport Structure:\u003c\/strong\u003e Steel Chassis with Three Adjustable Feet\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDust Cover:\u003c\/strong\u003e Non-resonant Acrylic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (W × D × H):\u003c\/strong\u003e 469 × 384 × 130 mm (Including Dust Cover)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePower Supply:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wall Adaptor Type\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInput Voltage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100 – 240VAC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePower Cord Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.5m\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExchangeable Plug Types:\u003c\/strong\u003e UK, US, EU, AUS\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8kg\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f39c12; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDG-1 ‘GROOVE RUNNER’ TONEARM SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fixed Axis Bearing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEffective Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 240mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOverhang:\u003c\/strong\u003e 17.5mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOffset Angle:\u003c\/strong\u003e 22.9°\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTonearm Beam:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aluminium \/ Polymer Sandwich\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBearing Structure:\u003c\/strong\u003e Twisted Nylon 6.6\/6 Thread\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCounterweight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless Steel with Adjustable Tracking Weight Block\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInternal Wiring:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gold Plated Flexible PCB\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCartridge Tags:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gold Plated\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSignal Path:\u003c\/strong\u003e One Piece From Cartridge To Output\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOutputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e RCA Sockets\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTonearm Weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 280g\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Vertere Audio","offers":[{"title":"No Cartridge","offer_id":51748705763616,"sku":null,"price":4099.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Factory Fitted Magneto Cartridge","offer_id":51748705796384,"sku":null,"price":4349.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/3728\/1568\/files\/imgi_3_dg-2.jpg?v=1779914087","url":"https:\/\/salon1audio.com\/products\/vertere-dg-1-dynamic-groove-turntable","provider":"Salon 1 Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
