Dose your Rega rp8 sagging issues

The plinth sagging/warping is a manufacturing defect.
Take it back!! It should be replaced for free.

I have it sitting on top of a rack of silence and the shelf is a 1.5 inch peace of slate. So i know the shelf is not the problem. also the slate is perfectly level too before i place the turntable on top. And it seams its only the front left corner that sages. And all i use for a record clamp is a clever clamp no weight.

I would reach out to SoundOrganization.org - they are the US distributor of Rega.

JakeC - I'll be interested to find out how this turns out for you with the distributor.

Ugh.  I have an RP8 that is just over a year old.  I noticed that the spindle looked like it was touching my granite shelf as well.  If I remove the glass platter completely, it looks very close to touching. I can slide a thin piece of paper underneath the spindle, so it is not quite touching.  However, if I put the platter back on, it is obviously touching and I cannot slide anything underneath it.  I have tried it on different surfaces since it is so close, but the results are the same.  It does not appear that the plinth has sagged so much as the table was built with less than 1mm of clearance before adding the weight of the glass platter.  I am now similarly concerned and going back to my Rega dealer to get this worked.  Thanks for your posting as I am glad to know that my situation is not unique...
