Vertere SG-1
Hi-Fi Choice|Yearbook 2022
In its Clear finish, seen here, the SG-1 retails for £16,000, while £18,250 pays for Black, Pearlescent, or Champagne. All are elegant, the two levels of 30mm-thick cast acrylic for top and bottom strata of the plinth, with a 15mm intermediate level of acrylic, creating a futuristic see-through look.

To the deck are added the SG-1 PTA HB tonearm (£3,500), the middle of three models, with Verum tonearm cable (£2,700), and Motor Drive Imperium PSU (£7,950), also the middle of three, along with Redline Mains and Motor Link cables, for a heady package price of £30,150.

The uppermost 30mm acrylic layer is supported directly on the deck’s three adjustable feet while the lower slab ‘hangs’ via six constrained silicone rubber bands. The middle 15mm cast acrylic layer is supported by and decoupled from the lower layer, hosting the platter/bearing and tonearm ‘sub-chassis’ that is located via another six domed decouplers – one at the rear and five at the front.
