The Vertere DG X’s motor system is derived from that developed for the flagship RG-1 Reference Motor Drive. It has a programmable microprocessor with a D/A converter to provide low-distortion sine and cosine waves that turn the motor. This drive to the platter used a precision aluminium alloy pulley and a bespoke silicon rubber belt.  The three-layer sandwiched platter rests on a ‘super-polished’ spindle on top of a tungsten carbide ball in the bearing housing.
