Any Rega experts out there ?

hello, on a P9 TT I have a double pulley or two same size belt grooves on the drive pulley. So does this mean I need to run two belts ? The white belts sell for 100.00 bucks here !! They don't make the white belts any longer for some reason. So this fellow must have old stock @ 100 a pop.

I don’t believe you have to run 2 belts but running 2 will spread the load over double the area hence less stress on the belts.
I don’t have a Rega but I do run 2 belts on my turntable, I could just as easily run 1.

If your P9 have a double pulley, go with 2 belts.
You have a nice TT.

it sure does. Thanks you guys. Those white belts are not worth 90 dollars a piece. They are no longer made so that tells you something too.
