I had a custom cover made for my RP10 and packed the base and cover away. I checked with a number of acrylic cover company's e.g. Ginkgo and found a local cover at a 3rd of the price. It isn't as nicely finished but it does and excellent job in preventing dust pentration. You may check for someone in your area that works with plastics and acrylics.
RP8 dustcover or not?
I own the magnificent Rega RP8 turntable and are a very pleased owner by far. I do have a question, and have not yet see this discussed..?? The RP8 are great looking in it self, but when you take off the outer-frame and do NOT have the luxury using the dustcover, it looks awsome. But you now have free access for dust to get to the table, and i really don`t know if this could be a problem on the long run..?? And YES, it is relatively easy to take the outerframe off, but it`s not THAT easy, so to flex between on/off, would be 2 much i guess. So if i could have it my way, i will use it without the outer-frame, but on the other hand, i don`t wan`t to destroy/damage anything..?? Anyone has any experience with this..??
