Armboard plate is also compatible with Rega OEM arms. (One piece armboards for RB-250 and 300 coming soon!)Unlike other manufactured armboards, these are ONE PIECE ofhigh quality machined aluminum. See the pictures below of what can happen ifyour two piece armboard eventually unglues! Yes, these other two piece armboards on the market are held together with only glue,no rivets. While you are looking at pictures, also check out the one side by side comparing the Vinyl Nirvana armboard to the one currently on the market: their holes are out of round, glue protrudes from the underside, and the brushed finish is uneven. The Vinyl Nirvana armboard is on the LEFT.Included with your armboard are three stainless steel screws for attaching the plate to the table and three stainless steel screws for attaching the arm to the armboard. Note: Turntable and tonearm in the photos are for illustration purposes only. Great prices for Rega arms at Brit Audio!Note: Installation of your tonearm will require some removal of metal from the Thorens subchassis. This can be done by file, grinder, or Dremel. (I prefer the Dremel with a metal grinding wheel...the Thorens subchassis cuts like butter with that!)Shipping fee includes insurance. Items will be bagged (screws separately) then boxed, then bagged in a padded envelope.
